  • The Impact of Digital Feminist Activism by Cassie
    #TrendingFeminism: The Impact of Digital Feminist Activism by Cassie Clark B.A. in English and Theatre, May 2007, St. Olaf College A Thesis submitted to The Faculty of The Columbian College of Arts and Sciences of The George Washington University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts May 17, 2015 Thesis directed by Todd Ramlow Adjunct Professor of Women’s Studies This work is dedicated to my grandfather, who, upon being told that I was planning to attend graduate school, responded, “Good, you should have more education than your father.” ii The author wishes to acknowledge Dr. Todd Ramlow for his expertise, knowledge, and encouragement. She also wishes to acknowledge Dr. Alexander Dent for his invaluable guidance regarding the performance of media and digital technologies. iii Abstract of Thesis #TrendingFeminism: The Impact of Digital Feminist Activism As the use of online platforms such as social networking sites, also known as social media, and blogs grew in popularity, feminists began to embrace digital media as a significant space for activism. Digital feminist activism is a new iteration of feminist activism, offering new tools and tactics for feminists to utilize to spread awareness, disseminate information, and mobilize constituents. In this paper I examine the intent, usefulness, and potential impact of digital feminist activism in the United States by analyzing key examples of social movements conducted via digital media. These analyses not only provide useful examples of a variety of digital feminist efforts, they also highlight strengths and weaknesses in each campaign with the aim of improving the impact of future digital feminist campaigns.

  • Everyday Feminism in the Digital Era: Gender, the Fourth Wave, and Social Media Affordances
    EVERYDAY FEMINISM IN THE DIGITAL ERA: GENDER, THE FOURTH WAVE, AND SOCIAL MEDIA AFFORDANCES A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Urszula M. Pruchniewska May 2019 Examining Committee Members: Carolyn Kitch, Advisory Chair, Media and Communication Fabienne Darling-Wolf, Media and Communication Adrienne Shaw, Media and Communication Rebecca Alpert, Religion ABSTRACT The last decade has seen a pronounced increase in feminist activism and sentiment in the public sphere, which scholars, activists, and journalists have dubbed the “fourth wave” of feminism. A key feature of the fourth wave is the use of digital technologies and the internet for feminist activism and discussion. This dissertation aims to broadly understand what is “new” about fourth wave feminism and specifically to understand how social media intersect with everyday feminist practices in the digital era. This project is made up of three case studies –Bumble the “feminist” dating app, private Facebook groups for women professionals, and the #MeToo movement on Twitter— and uses an affordance theory lens, examining the possibilities for (and constraints of) use embedded in the materiality of each digital platform. Through in-depth interviews and focus groups with users, alongside a structural discourse analysis of each platform, the findings show how social media are used strategically as tools for feminist purposes during mundane online activities such as dating and connecting with colleagues. Overall, this research highlights the feminist potential of everyday social media use, while considering the limits of digital technologies for everyday feminism. This work also reasserts the continued need for feminist activism in the fourth wave, by showing that the material realities of gender inequality persist, often obscured by an illusion of empowerment.

  • Women Against Feminism: Exploring Discursive Measures and Implications of Anti-Feminist Discourse
    Globe: A Journal of Language, Culture and Communication, 2: 70-90 (2015) Women against feminism: Exploring discursive measures and implications of anti-feminist discourse Alex Phillip Lyng Christiansen, Aalborg University Ole Izard Høyer, Aalborg University Abstract: The present paper studies anti-feminist discourse within the tumblr-based group Women Against Feminism, and explores how the sentiments of these anti-feminists, as expressed in a multi-modal format, may help to understand the difficulty feminism has with gathering support from its female audience. The textual corpus, gathered through the site, is analysed with methods inspired by Fairclough's 2012 version of CDA, focused on discovering social issues within feminism as it relates to a female audience. By considering implicature and counter-discourse, the analysis demonstrates that anti-feminists perceive feminists as victimising the female population and depriving them of agency, and call for feminism to consider their viewpoint. Conclusively, the created perception of victimisation then serves to illustrate how language works to construe modern feminist discourse in a negative light, and how this may further hinder feminism in reaching the audience it desires. Keywords: Antifeminism, counter-discourse, Critical Discourse Analysis, victimisation. 1. Introduction Women have real reasons to fear feminism, and we do young women no service if we suggest to them that feminism itself is safe. It is not. To stand opposed to your culture, to be critical of institutions, behaviors, discourses--when it is so clearly not in your immediate interest to do so--asks a lot of a young person, of any person. At its best, the feminist challenging of individualism, of narrow notions of freedom, is transformative, exhilarating, empowering.

  • Destined for Equality
    DESTINED FOR EQUALITY THE INEVITABLE RISE OF WOMEN’S STATUS ROBERT MAX JACKSON HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS, AND LONDON, ENGLAND 1998 CHAPTER FIVE WOMEN'S REJECTION OF SUBORDINATION Once the conditions supporting gender inequality started to change, women (and men) began to face new choices. Circumstances beyond any individual's conscious control dictated the choices available to women and their probable outcomes. How women could or should live their lives became less well defined. If men have increasingly ceded more of women's aspirations and demands, women have increasingly aspired higher and demanded more. If structural changes generated new opportunities and reduced the obstructing interests, women still had to seize those opportunities and champion their interests. Real women and men had to take all the actions that created, preserved, challenged, and eroded gender inequality. Women helped erode gender inequality through several levels of action, including passive responses to altered circumstances, active efforts as individuals, and collective action in social movements. As the economy and political orders developed, in an unobservable systemic process, gender inequality underwent a gradual structural disembedding from positional inequality. Women (like men) responded to a complex realignment of interests and relationships that were not reducible to a simple series of historical events. Reducing childrearing, taking unwanted jobs, and going to school were but a few of women's important adaptations to changing circumstances. Individual efforts at advancement by ambitious women rose above simple adaptation, quietly but continuously. Women sought to better themselves, to achieve new identities, to acquire new freedoms. Taken together, 174 • DESTINED FOR EQUALITY these actions left a marked historical trace.

    CHAPTER 12 @NoToFeminism, #FeministsAreUgly and Misandry Memes: How Social Media Feminist Humour is Calling out Antifeminism Emilie Lawrence and Jessica Ringrose University College London, Institute of Education In The Aftermath of Feminism, Anglea McRobbie (2009) defines postfeminism as the simultaneous rejection of feminism by critics who argued it was outmoded because it aggravated for an irrelevant political issue (women’s equality), and the commodification of feminism through forms of faux-feminism or a ‘postfeminist masquerade’ that appropriated feminist rhetoric to sell products. Rosalind Gill’s (2007) conceptualisation of a “postfeminist sensibility” illustrated by the co-optation of feminism through contemporary advertising and other media, demonstrated this dynamic of the market-harnessing feminism. Gill and colleagues have shown how faux feminism and commodity feminism can work in many diverse forms; from aid campaigns where Western women and girls are inculcated to save women and girls in the ‘third world’ from their less empowered forms of femininities (Koffman and Gill 2011), to ‘Love Your Body’ discourses that co-opt fat activism and body positivy in the service of expanding capitalist markets to ever wider nets of consumers (Gill and Elias 2014). Thus, postfeminist media culture has been deemed to be a space where feminism is either vehemently rejected, or it is a form of cultural appropriation that subverts genuine feminist coalition, solidarity and politics. However, recent scholarship suggests that the analytical lens offerd by postfeminism may no longer be as useful as it once was. Catherine Driscoll (2016) maintains that postfeminism is a totalizing framework that invokes a temporal frame of before and after 1 feminism that is reductive but also Eurocentric, giving it limited purchase in global contexts.

Women RedPilling Women: Anti-feminist Radicalization on YouTube 3 AKNOWLEDGEMENT Foremost, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor, Prof. Linda Bos, for the continuous support of my Master thesis project. Her patience, motivation and guidance provided much needed focus and clarity to this study and greatly helped me both in the research and writing phases. Besides my supervisor, I would like to thank my fellow classmates Pia Yvonne Behme, Tanja Kunesh, Julia Rignot and Daniel Avelar Guimarães for their encouragement, stimulating discussions and emotional support. Without their help, their challenging questions and insightful comments, this thesis and this year would have been a much less successful, gratifying and fun experience. Women RedPilling Women: Anti-feminist Radicalization on YouTube 4 Abstract Anti-feminist groups on the Web 2.0 have originated and propagated through online spaces new digital native forms of opposition to the gender equality movement. Despite their many differences, fringe subcultures are united in their support of the philosophy of the Red Pill, a shared belief in the oppressed state of men in society at the hands of the matriarchy and its feminist agents.
