Kuper's Reading


*

Prison visit by author for the purpose of mental health assessment of the inmates.
*

Why did the young man feel like he needed to dress as a woman to avoid injury? (When he first got there, he was repeatedly abused, and its better to be someone's “bitch” and become their “property” due to the subsequent protection, then have rivalries over rights to who can do what to whom
o

“Taken off the market”
o

By taking on the role of a female, be becomes “property” of one of the men
*

Guards advice: should have been violent from the start to establish himself in the prison hierarchy, to avoid being constantly attacked, de-sexualized
o

Hierarchy created inside- like a mini culture, symbolic and representative of the outside world
o

Those who do not initially establish their authority are feminised/devalued in this culture
o

Child molesters at bottom- people can gage themselves depending on the type of crime they committed
*

Young man does not consider himself a trans gender/sexual, however has taken on a persona that is not his own to just to be safe

o

now moreso than ever
*

Public is shocked that women are portrayed as demeaning prisoners and their masculinity
o

gender roles in war
+

usually women are the ones who are degraded
+

role reversal in this case
*

Women are used as a commodity of war
o

raped and pregnant, child shunned
o

Pregnant on trial- sign of heirarchy and dominance
*

Women must become ultra masculine to fit into the male dominated profession
o

to get respect

Class Notes 3/19/07

Prepared by Darling C.

WGS 220- Prof. Gamble

Class notes for 3/19/07

• All students must submit assessments for group members and self.
• Students must remember to update group blog.

RECAP FROM THE DOCUMENTARY, “Jesus Camp”- Judgment vs. Analysis

• When posting to blog, watch language. Determine what analysis and judgment consist of. Some terms used in blog post may be degrading to actors or shows discussed.
• Example: The show, “Girls Next Door,”

What to say: “the show depicts society’s view of women as being vixens”

What not to say: “The girls on the show are vixens”

• Ask why controversy surrounding show is present, look at the contributing factors. Examine if this should really be the case.

• When posting, watch grammar, especially quotes.

HEGEMONIC VS. COUNTERHEGEMONIC SOCIETY

• HEGEMONIC

Women are wives, mothers, and the primary caregivers.

• COUNTERHEGEMONIC

Women occupy leadership roles, have jobs, and choose their own religion.
