SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Imagine a world where the oppressive, over-feminized images of women from advertising, television, films, and magazines have re-armed themselves with army boots, body modifications, and flamboyant hair. Is this just another fairy tale, and if so, why cant it be a reality? This title unpacks the myth of model womanhood.
