All three women lack power, and they try to gain approval because it is not guaranteed to them as it is to the heteronormative male. ]]> 2021-06-03 13:25:27 UTC https://padlet.com/kkimp002/opjjzpv1c6s4n1rx/wish/1582442922 kkimp002 https://padlet.com/kkimp002/opjjzpv1c6s4n1rx/wish/1582454336 “a preferred reading reinforces taken-for-granted status quo beliefs and behaviors as normal, desirable, and common sense.” (Sellnow)]]> 2021-06-03 13:29:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kkimp002/opjjzpv1c6s4n1rx/wish/1582454336 kkimp002 https://padlet.com/kkimp002/opjjzpv1c6s4n1rx/wish/1582464391 This advertisement is a blatant preferred reading because it shows the woman who is well groomed as desirable, and, therefore, she is happy, while the others are unhappy because they lie outside the status quo. ]]> 2021-06-03 13:32:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kkimp002/opjjzpv1c6s4n1rx/wish/1582464391 kkimp002 https://padlet.com/kkimp002/opjjzpv1c6s4n1rx/wish/1582516994 "These early third-wave feminists chose, for example, to define beauty for themselves as subjects rather than as objects of sexist patriarchy."
