YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhat happened to feminism in the twenty-first century? This is the foundational question at the heart of cultural critic Sophie Gilbert’s new book, “Girl on Girl: How Pop Culture Turned a Generation of Women Against Themselves.” In it, she argues that porn’s long cultural shadow has resulted in the hyper-objectification of women, presenting them as spectacles. What can a critical look at the postfeminist era teach us about how women can view themselves in a more empowered and healthy way? Sophie Gilbert is a staff writer at The Atlantic.
