A feminist cultural studies approach to how popular culture, such as magazines, films, pulp fiction and advertising, construct diverse gender and sexual identities, including in relation to race, ethnicity, and age. Focus is on the consumption of mass-produced texts by gendered consumers, including consideration of possible ways of resisting and recuperating these forms and genres.
