       title: The Making of "Woman": The Evolution of Chinese State Feminism(s) Under Three Chinese Leaders 
        date: 2022
       words: 6085
      flesch: 48
     summary: The Fourth U.N. World Conference of Women (1995) in Beijing was a crucial turning point in helping Chinese women recognize the importance of self-agency and begin challenging state-imposed gender roles. Without analyzing how China’s feminist rhetoric emerged with its sociopolitical context, it becomes virtually impossible to advocate for a culturally-appropriate “gender equality” that empowers, rather than constrains, Chinese women.

     summary: Referencing a former op-ed in which journalist Nicholas D. Kristof had said that the only alternative to launching cruise missile strikes was sitting back and doing nothing, Jessica Neuwirth, the founder of women’s rights group Donor Direct Action, wrote that “Syrian women may be able to help reframe the options. It envisions an anti-violence campaign that engages Syrian mothers, wives and all women with help from women in other countries who have played a successful role in the cessation of armed conflict … Bringing the voices of Syrian women to the forefront may give us creative alternatives to consider as we debate intervention” (Neuwirth, 2013).

     summary: God is a strange and disruptive wielder of queer time that makes the future untenable through the present and timeless persistence of an unknowable past. In this way, a critical re- adherence to religion relies on the queer socio-political disavowal of hetero-capitalist time in exchange for the embracing of queer affective time driven by a corporeal receptivity to wonder.

     summary: “Marriage Fraud” as a Broken Promise The first major difference between Siyu and most tongqi is her lack of expectations when it comes to what Zhu terms the “ideal package of marriage-love-sex” (Zhu, 2018, p. 1077). Resultingly, Siyu’s life is far removed from the experiences of most tongqi, since she could independently decide to marry Hanfeng at age thirty-eight, and would face minimal social pressure if she were to choose divorce in the future.

     summary: Looking through the lens of immigration status, lavender is again an apt choice for the climactic scene because the plant is not indigenous to Germany; while lavender grows there today thanks to global trade and advanced farming techniques, the plant originates in Iran, the Mediterranean coast, Atlantic Islands, Asia Minor, and India (Quin 1864; “Lavender,” n.d.). Historically, the color, plant, and term lavender were covert signals of gay men’s identity in order to signal their sexuality to other gay men, while avoiding public persecution (Ellis, 2020).

     summary: More specifically, aspects of colonial mentality that will be examined in their relation to the mental health disparity afflicting Filipina American women include the unique history of the Philippines’ perception of Filipinas and how this perception was altered by colonization, the Western ascribing of feminine gender roles upon Filipina women as a consequence of this altered perception, and the modern-day prevalence of colonial-influenced Filipino cultural values. Colonization influenced the perception of Filipina women to ascribe to a Western standard of femininity, a standard that may still contribute to the self-sacrificing behaviors of Filipina American women for the sake of their families, but at the expense of their own mental health.

      flesch: 50
     summary: The lack of college investigation into sexual assault, pressures of nondisclosure, and frightening prevalence of campus sexual assault couple with the powerful voice of Miller's victim impact statement to demonstrate the necessity of incorporating victim-centered narratives into campus sexual assault policy. Through analyzing 500 stories across ten major American newspapers, O'Boyle & Li (2019) found that when reporting on campus sexual assault, the public media most often frames cases in terms of the moral characters of perpetrators and victims.

     summary: This is supported through the works’ suggestion that the ability to both rape and be raped was a consequence of social standing as well as their descriptions of the reverberations of rape throughout a victim’s broader community. Evidently, a woman’s prior social disrepute, whether based on her individual nature, the status of her friends and family, or her noncompliance with gendered social obligations could significantly weaken the applicability of the contemporary legal understanding of rape to her case; this ultimately strengthens the idea that such an understanding was rooted in an affront to social standing.

     summary: Of course, not every attitude falls neatly into one category or the other, but these are the two overarching themes which I will use to explain the tension around using English for queer identity labels. The first trend shows that, oftentimes, English queer identity labels can give people a place to discover and define their identity.

Adding their own voices to the narrative, Indian Muslim women have contributed to Muslim rights protests, including the multigenerational Shaheen Bagh protest in New Delhi opposing India’s 2019 Citizenship Amendment Act, which discriminates against Muslim migrants.

     summary: Long-time scholar of detective films, Philippa Gates, explains that female detectives of the 1930s were “masculinized” as they filled the traditionally male- dominated leading roles, such an occurrence showcased in Smart Blonde (1937) where Torchy, an investigative reporter, leaps onto a train in a move reminiscent of a male action hero (Gates, 2009). First analyzing femme fatale in 1940s film noir, this article provides an in-depth discussion on how female detectives in film were seen as dangerous women that needed to be contained.

     summary: In creating an environment where women must compete with one another for male attention, fraternities impede on women’s ability to cooperate and connect with other women. Although this practice is largely disapproved of, the finding that women frequently gossip about their hookups to other women may be more complex than meets the eye.

Despite trying to establish unique post-Soviet and anti-colonial national identities, modern politicians are forced to use the borders, identities, and narratives manufactured by the Soviet Union, creating historical dis/continuities and blurring the line between pre-colonial, Soviet, and post-Soviet in each of the republics.

Only at the end of the film do we find out that Fae’s identity is fictional, and merely representative of the many Black actresses omitted from film history.

     summary: These tropes construct abject Asian female subjectivities, assigning a perverse hypersexuality to Asian women as an inherent characteristic that starkly contrasts with the normative and morally superior sexuality embodied by white women on screen (Shimizu, 2000). This intersection of patriarchal oppression and colonial exploitation laid the foundation for Asian pornotroping, embedding narratives of destitution and sexual availability into the racialized portrayals of Asian women.

     summary: This paper explores how the roles of stigma, trauma, and embodiment of sexualized characters greatly shape the experiences of online sex workers. It was through this subculture project that I also discovered there was little research on the actual lives of porn stars (or as I later learned the preferred term, online sex workers).

     summary: Psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan complicated his theory of the gaze throughout his clinical career and seminars (Rabaté, 2014; Scott, 2015). The resulting dissonance between the ideal ego and the physical self which begins a cycle of identification, gaze, and narcissism.
