520 1 $a"In Alternative Femininities, Samantha Holland unpacks the myth of model womanhood and considers how a particular gorup of real women define and practise 'femininity'. These women, who see themselves as 'alternative', modify and subvert popular images of femininity. The choices they make in clothing, appearance and body modifications enable them to construct a personal look that is intimately tied to self-identity. Getting the balance right between over-femininity and not being feminine enough is a frequently voiced concern. Holland also addresses head-on the much-neglected issue of how ageing impacts on notions of femininity."
520 8 $a"A look at contemporary femininity, Alternative Femininities gives voice to a previously silent group of women who struggle to resist sexist gender stereotypes, yet age with style, individuality and creativity. By looking at how real women negotiate self-image in an increasingly appearance-conscious society, Holland has provided corrective to theoretical accounts of gender and femininity lacking in real data."--BOOK JACKET.
