I'll make a man out of you: Redefining strong female characters
There has been a significant increase in the number of television shows and movies that showcase female action heroes, challenging and transforming the historical representations of women. But are these truly examples of "Strong Female Characters," or do they simply replicate traditional masculine archetypes in a sexualized, female body?
In this lecture, Anita Sarkeesian deconstructs the "Strong Female Character," and argues for a better approach to how women are portrayed in media, one that breaks out of oppressive interpretations of gender and supports feminist values to promote a more just society.
