  • Boys Can Learn From Watching Xena: Recently Xena has been brought back. As I settled down to watch it, I did not expect my boys to be interested in watching it, however she grabbed Destructions attention right away. His first question regarded whether or not Xena was secretly a prince because ?princesses just aren?t that tough?. Despite all of the time I have spent deconstructing gender in our home, Destruction is still a binary thinker when it comes to gender roles. Much of his way of thought has to do with the gender roles that are enforced in the education system and images that he has internalized from mainstream media.

  • The Skeptical OB: Your "orgasm face"? Cosmo and the pornification of women: The idea that women exist solely for the sexual satisfaction of men is the basis of pornography. What is surprising and depressing is that young women are being encouraged by other women to believe that they exist only for the sexual satisfaction of young men. [...] The problem occurs when people begin to believe that it is a realistic depiction of women, and that women do exist only to satisfy the sexual needs of men and have no sexual needs of their own. The relentless use of sexual imagery to sell products and gain attention can be blamed for giving young women the idea that their role in life is to satisfy the sexual needs of men. It is an unfortunate, and unintended consequence of sexualizing large swaths of contemporary culture. Altogether more disturbing, because it is intended and explicit, is the way that women?s magazines have encouraged women themselves to believe that their chief value is as objects for the sexual gratification of men.
