AUTHOR
1 Customer Product ReviewsSUMMARY
Using popular culture as a fertile environment for challenging the stereotype that the most brilliant geeks or nerds must be men, the essays in this book demonstrate how the popular media repeatedly affirms stereotypes of femininity while paradoxically challenging the stigmatization of smart women. Contributors salute a wide range of popular characters and real female role models, from Daria to Hillary Rodham Clinton, weaving in references to television shows like Gilmore Girls and analyses of classic icons like Sabrina.Inness, Sherrie A. is the author of 'Geek Chic Smart Women in Popular Culture', published 2007 under ISBN 9781403979032 and ISBN 1403979030.
