I plan to use this article in my analyzation of the movie "A League of Their Own." I believe the most efficient way to make use of this article is to describe the time period and the wave of feminism that was relevant during the time period that this movie belongs in. The article will help gain perspective on the conditions of society in the movie's time period in addition to what treatment women expected from their peers in this time period.]]> 2019-11-06 05:31:47 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/407276589 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/407287290 https://www.history.com/topics/world-war-ii/american-women-in-world-war-ii-1
During World War II, many women took the place of men in industries that men mostly dominated in prior to wartime. This article shows the trends and purposes that these women who were previously "useless housewives" had during the war. As it turns out, this movie shows one of the first instances in which women became involved in sports in the U.S.: the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League.

I will use this source to depict the change that the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League sparked in the sports industry since it was established. This shows all of the advancements that women have had in sports since the topic of the movie was created. This will be helpful in relating the roles women played during the different waves of feminism.]]> 2019-11-06 07:02:52 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/407289159 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/407294372 https://www.theclassroom.com/feminism-during-1940s-14003.html
Similar to "The Waves of Feminism, and Why People Keep Fighting Over Them, Explained" by Constance Grady, this article will help draw a broader frame of view for the conditions of this time era. It will give insights into the second wave of feminism and show how without this wave, women possibly wouldn't have a lot of the freedoms we enjoy today. I'll be able to pull examples of different heroic women of this time era, whether they be found in comic books, motion pictures, or real life.]]> 2019-11-06 07:30:03 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/407294372 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/407301096 https://www.pophistorydig.com/topics/tag/american-women-1940s/
This source shows several different examples of how women from the 1940s expressed themselves and their identities through pop culture references such as "Rosie the Riveter." This will be helpful towards my essay in being able to reference popular culture of that time period relevant to the women I'm addressing. Collectively, this should provide me with enough examples to work through some aspirations the characters in this movie may have had at the time.]]> 2019-11-06 07:52:26 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/407301096 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/414215521 This is a source I plan to reference in the paper by explaining that civil rights were not completely inclusive until the mid-60s, and that women living in the time before the Civil Rights Act suffered greatly by having only one occupation be offered to them for the remainder of their lives: a housewife.]]> 2019-11-20 18:36:58 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/414215521 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/415613858 I plan to use this paper to advance my points that the male-driven entertainment industry dehumanization women as sex objects, especially prior to the basic Civil Rights Act. This will thoroughly enforce that based on research and statistical studies by three female psychologists, the exploitation of women's bodies in the AAGPBL was solely based on the expectations that the male audience had going into the agreement of women becoming a face in a masculine occupation.]]> 2019-11-23 06:59:39 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/415613858 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/421822436 The movie makes use of a scene that is seen rather cute and endearing, when a woman is looking for her name on the roster, but cannot find it. Another woman approaches her asking if she is able to read, when she responds "no," her new friend finds her name on the roster and they sit down together as members of the same team. However, I believe that this scene was placed into the movie to signify that at this time (1940s-50s), women did not have access to proper or equal education such as men did prior to '74. ]]> 2019-12-09 19:36:02 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/421822436 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/422580307 I plan on using this article to represent why baseball is considered a masculine profession. This also includes the year that baseball was created in order for me to insert this into my article in the fallacy section.]]> 2019-12-11 07:19:55 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/422580307 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423052325 I plan on using this article as either a reference or a backdrop in my mind as I work through some of the toxic masculinity portrayed in this film. I thought that this article was really helpful in painting a scene of what masculinity was idealized as in the 1940s, and why some people still hold that WWII ideal high in their minds as a value for all men to strive towards.]]> 2019-12-12 00:25:47 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423052325 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423054959 This article will really help me drive the point that rather than blaming the women for "stealing" men's jobs while they were out fighting, maybe the problem was based in the methods that the men were using. This will give me a good basis to describe that the women were not at fault here even though it seems to be the case, and this can be a usage of the false dichotomy fallacy since the only two causes the press released were pinned on the wrongs of women, and not the wrongs of the men that began the war.]]> 2019-12-12 00:37:14 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423054959 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423123134 I plan to use this article to interject into the analysis some other perspectives regarding certain things that happened throughout the film. I liked this review, and it happened to be the most popular film critique I had found as well. A quote I had taken note of while watching the movie was, "Are you crying? There's no crying in baseball!" and this person's observation of the quote was really beneficial to some of the points that I am trying to communicate.]]> 2019-12-12 06:38:11 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423123134 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423127479 Although this journal is relatively based around the stigma of emotions as feminine on the political scene, I also think that it's useful in analyzing certain quotes said by men in the film. "There's no crying in baseball," is a great one to start with, alongside, "I haven't got ballplayers, I've got girls! Girls are what you sleep with after the game, not what you coach during the game." These two quotes from the character Jimmy Dugan (Tom Hanks) put into perspective the dehumanization that women often fell victim of due to their "sensitive" nature, when perhaps the imbalance came from the lack of emotions or sensitivity of the men of this time. My purpose with this journal is to observe how this movie may have been different if this was the case in this time of political upheaval in the United States.]]> 2019-12-12 07:10:21 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423127479 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423131404 This is a great article from not only a nephew, but the son of two women that had played in the league. The film's two main characters -- Dottie and Kit -- were inspired by them. In this article, Kelly Candaele answers some questions about the ending scene of the movie, but more importantly talks about how much his mother and aunt cared for the game, and how it was just as real of an occupation as anybody could hope for, and they took great pride in their athletic talents.]]> 2019-12-12 07:29:15 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423131404 neighbelline https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423133169 This autobiography is great because it includes the autobiography of the oldest living member of the AAGPBL. She describes how growing up, she would play and win against the boys in her neighborhood, to their dismay. But this is evidence that these women were not athletically inferior, nor were their accomplishments added up to any less than the men they "substituted" for.]]> 2019-12-12 07:37:20 UTC https://padlet.com/neighbelline/jixet8q6krvr/wish/423133169
