Task 5 :
POST-FEMINISM
Do
you agree with the argument that feminism is no longer necessary?
Use
the internet to research women’s pay and the number of women in positions of
power in Parliament, the judiciary and in top paid jobs.
What
role do you think the media now plays in making certain roles, jobs and
attributes seem ‘natural’ for women?
Find
some textual examples to support your points.
Task 6 :
Judith Butler (1999)
A
contemporary approach to gender representation has been introduced by Judith
Butler (1999).
Carry
out some research into her study – what are her key findings?
How
does her approach differ from some of the other perspectives you have looked
at?
