The visual representation of female masculinity in Marvel and DC comic booksMcCullum, Yannick January 2020 (has links)
Magister Artium - MA / This thesis seeks to understand the visual representation of female masculinity in Marvel and DC comic books, and further contribute to the fields of linguistics and gender studies. The subject matter discussed issues around gender identity, masculinity, and visual representation. Currently, there is a lack of literature available on the subject matter of female masculinity in comic books, therefore creating a gap in knowledge about how women are being represented in comic books. The goal of this thesis was to contribute to this knowledge, and in doing so, further adding more knowledge about the subject matter for future researchers in the field. The theoretical framework included a diverse approach of social theories and perspectives, namely: Multimodal Discourse Analysis, Intertextuality, Dialogicality, and Queer Theory. The goals of this thesis were to understand the various modes used in the representation of female masculinity that have evolved over time, and how these modes contribute to developing characters who challenge the traditional gender norms and rules. The data that was used for this thesis was collected from comic books in which female characters are in leading roles, namely Captain Marvel (Carol Danvers) and Wonder Woman. / 2022

Männlichkeitskonstruktionen und ‚Female Masculinity’ in Charlotte Brontës Roman Jane EyreBorsch, Christine 02 May 2023 (has links)
Aus literaturwissenschaftlicher Position heraus argumentiert Christine Borsch (M. A., M. Ed.) in ihrem anglistischen Beitrag, Männlichkeitskonstruktionen und ‚Female Masculinity‘ in Charlotte Brontës Roman Jane Eyre. Bescheinigt sie doch ihrem Untersuchungsgegenstand – Brontës viel beforschtem feministischem ‚Kult-Roman‘ von 1847 – die Qualität, ästhetisch ein Wissen zu gestalten, das erst von der gegenwärtigen Geschlechterforschung theoretisiert und formuliert ist. Borsch nähert sich dem genderrelevanten Bedeutungspotenzial des Romans, der mit dem rollentransgressiven Ausgangsprofil seiner Heldin wie mit seinem regressiven Ende an Astons deutschsprachigen Roman unmittelbar ‚anzugrenzen‘ scheint, indessen nicht mit Butler, sondern mit prominenten Theoremen der Masculinity Studies. Im Rekurs auf Connell, Kimmel und insbesondere Halberstam leistet Borsch nicht nur eine Neuausrichtung des analytischen Blicks auf die männlichen Figuren mit ihrem ‚Geschlechtsrollenstress‘ und ihren scheiternden Versuchen, Geschlechtsidentitäten und soziale Beziehungen innerhalb der engen Grenzen der viktorianischen Geschlechterordnung zu leben. Es gelingt auch ein neuer, begrifflich präziserer Blick auf die Protagonistin und ihre prekäre Weiblichkeit. Jane, die den ‚weiblichen‘, privaten Bereich nur als provokante Begrenzung erlebt und, so Borsch, alle Kategorien kultureller Rollenvorgaben sprengt, die sich selbst ‚männlich‘ attribuiert und von ihrer Umwelt als „animal“, „alien“ und „queer little thing“ bezeichnet wird, erscheint mit Halberstam nun als literarische Präfiguration einer ‚Femal Masculinity‘ außerhalb des Geschlechterbinarismus, wo die Koppelung von biologischem Körper, Begehren und Verhalten gelöst sind, geschlechtliche Fixierungen entgrenzt und Positionswechsel nicht sanktionsbedürftig, sondern Ausdruck universeller ‚Genderfluity‘. Mehr noch: In diesem Zugang entfaltet sich das Aktualitätspotenzial dieses Traditionstextes – es liegt, so die Verfasserin, im vorausschauenden, kreativen Umgang mit lebensweltlichen Zwängen.

Banheiros públicos como demarcação de fronteiras identitárias: experiências de mulheres lésbicas em São Paulo / Public bathrooms as demarcation of identity borders: experiences of lesbian women in São PauloCicconetti, Josefina Raquel 04 June 2019 (has links)
A presente dissertação apresenta a pesquisa Banheiros públicos como demarcação de fronteiras identitárias: experiências de mulheres lésbicas em São Paulo, investigação que traz uma análise crítica sobre as experiências de mulheres lésbicas nos banheiros públicos em São Paulo. No seu objetivo geral, propôs-se identificar as desigualdades em termos de gênero e sexualidade, enquanto marcadores sociais da diferença, que operam nos banheiros públicos, fazendo uso de uma abordagem interdisciplinar entre os Estudos Culturais, as teorias Feministas, Pós-estruturalistas e Queer. Enquanto objetivo específico, buscou-se aprofundar na análise dos sentidos que as entrevistadas produziam ao narrarem suas experiências, analisando assim categorias conceituais e empíricas como mulher, homem, masculinidade, feminilidade, lésbica expressão de gênero e performance de gênero. A abordagem desses temas se contrapõe à concepção idealizada culturalmente dos banheiros como espaço neutro, no qual sua divisão se acredita dar de forma natural. Argumenta-se, por meio das experiências das entrevistadas, como este espaço opera como um dispositivo protocolar do gênero, em termos de indicar os limites e as fronteiras dos processos identitários entre os sujeitos. Desta forma, a não adequação dos sujeitos aos padrões de homem / mulher gera uma ruptura no sistema heteronormativo, no sentido das expectativas e demandas sociais, e aciona diversas técnicas de poder e controle, tornando o banheiro em mais um cenário normativo de afirmação da diferença sexual. O banheiro público é o local por meio do qual, a diferença sexual vai se afirmar e sustentar, já seja no sentido simbólico (os signos, figuras, representações do masculino e do feminino) ou literal (dispositivos de vigilância e controle que estão dispersos no meio social que instituem modelos de corpos-homem e corpos-mulher). Assim, o banheiro público representa, na sociedade paulista contemporânea, o último bastião do sistema heteronormativo e patriarcal / The present research Public bathrooms as demarcation of identity borders: experiences of lesbian women in São Paulo, provides a critical analysis of the experiences of lesbian women in public toilets in São Paulo. Its general objective was to identify inequalities in terms of gender and sexuality as social markers of difference that operate in public toilets, using an interdisciplinary approach between Cultural Studies, and the Feminist, Post-structuralist and Queer theories. As a specific objective, we sought to deepen the analysis of the meanings the interviewees produced in narrating their experiences, thus analyzing conceptual and empirical categories such as woman, man, masculinity, femininity, lesbian, gender expression and gender performance. The approach to these themes runs counter to the culturally idealized conception of the bathrooms as a neutral space, in which their division is believed to be natural. It is argued, through the experiences of the interviewees, that this space operates as a gender device protocol, in terms of indicating the limits and the boundaries of the identity processes between the subjects. As such, the non-adaptation of the subjects to the standards of man/ woman generates a rupture in the heteronormative system, in the sense of expectations and social demands, and triggers several techniques of power and control, making the bathroom another normative scenario of affirmation of sexual difference. The public toilet is the place whereby sexual difference is affirmed and sustained, whether in the symbolic sense (signs, figures, representations of the masculine and the feminine) or literal (devices of surveillance and control which are dispersed in the social environment that establish models of man-bodies and woman-bodies). Thus, the public bathroom represents, in contemporary Paulista society, the last bastion of the heteronormative and patriarchal system

Hembros : A thematized queer phenomenologic study on the lived experiences of trans-people in Quito-EcuadorRomero, Susana January 2012 (has links)
The aim of this essay is to examine the narrated experiences of three Trans- masculine activists in relationship to the emergence of a new term "hembros" as a forum for diverse forms of gender expression and subjectivity. The present study is an attempt to examine gender expression from a nomadic subjective approach and a queer phenomenological theoretical framework. The results of this study have shown that gender expression, although not free from the tensions that social sanctions present, could be proposed from different locations of embodied gender subjectivity. Meaning that awareness about the gender system and the structures of power, and working within those frames, one can create new notions of gender expression, taking the body as a starting point.
