During the semester, you will become more aware of how
popular culture portrays women, gender and sexuality. To help with that, I highly recommend liking and following some feminist
pop culture pages on Facebook.
You'll be more tuned into current events and issues that come up in your
feed, and following them will make assignments like the research paper much easier to brainstorm. Maybe you'll
even be inspired share some posts on your wall and get your friends to engage
with important issues!
These are the “big three” (and still have print versions of
their magazines):
Founded by second wave feminists, this is the oldest and
most established.
Bitch Magazine is a superb third wave publication that has
expanded into a non-profit media organization.
Another established and well-respected third wave
publication.
And these three are newer, but worth following:
A fantastic resource for current feminist issues, from fat
shaming to racism to biphobia.
A more recent and popular news and media site run by young
feminists.
For
you Comic-Con fans, this is a feminist fangirl take on pop culture.
