and she finds it easy to fit into most social
set ups and vocational fields.
There are no particular virtues that can
cause an imbalance in Annie's personality and
life, but she has to work hard and
persistently to develop those special
strengths that she desires to attain.
Learning to be wisely assertive is a major
lesson to be taken by Annie Oakley
throughout her life.

12. Feminist literary criticism is used to explore
the inequalities, social injustices and abusive
messages directed toward women
within patriarchal societies and
cultures. Patriarchy is a system of social
organization that traces descent through the
male line and bestows privilege and power to
males on the assumption of their physical
and intellectual superiority over women.
Feminist literary criticism has evolved from
a strictly literary activity to a way of
analyzing and interpreting all forms of
human communication and language.
13. Feminist critics investigate cultural expressions of all
forms, including linguistics, visual art and popular
texts, using the concept of dominant discourse.
Dominant discourse refers to the power dynamics
that control the written, spoken and behavioural
expectations imposed upon society and culture by
those in power. One way that women writers
contribute to dominant discourse is by showing how
patriarchy misrepresents the emotional and sexual
experiences of women and by exploring new
narrative strategies that help reshape sexual politics.
Cultural views on morality are “a product of books
and movies like Fifty Shades of Grey,” according
to The Atlantic journalist Anna Green. Feminist critics
say the novel shows “the terrible communication”
between males and females.
14. I ask my students to list as many different types
of Americans as possible. I try to make the list as
diverse as it can possibly be. If there is any
confusion, I specify that we are looking for
descriptors that people would possibly use for
themselves. My list on the board usually looks
something like this: native-born, naturalized
citizen, expatriate living abroad, Republicans,
Democrats, moderates, independents,
Libertarians, Communists, Socialists, Christians,
Muslims, Hindus, Atheists, Mormons, Buddhists,
Jews, middle-class, wealthy, people living below
the poverty line, people with disabilities,
educated, uneducated, children, adults, the
elderly, retired folks, students, etc.

This is an obvious choice. Queen Bey's powerful, high-energy anthem is
everything, from a crowd favorite to a straight-up battle cry.
MOVIE
Mean Girls – Joan Marcus
There’s a great joke about feminism in Mark Waters’ high-school
comedy classic “Mean Girls,” smashed into a key dramatic exchange.
Newbie Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan), deep in her first invite-only
lunch with the so-called Plastics, is pumped for information by the
notoriously gossip-obsessed Gretchen Wieners (Lacey Chabert).
Breathlessly, Gretchen asks Cady if she’s seen any cute boys at North
Shore High yet, and when Cady tells her she’s got her eye on Aaron
Samuels (Jonathan Bennett), Gretchen is overcome.
Turns out, Aaron is the ex-boyfriend of Regina George (Rachel
McAdams), queen of the Plastics, and that’s just not okay. He’s off-
limits, girls don’t date their friends’ ex-boyfriends. In Gretchen’s own
words, that’s “just the rules of feminism.”
