Using three (3) specific selections from this week’s selection from Chapter 3, discuss what ideas/expectations shape women’s bodies? How do multiple (intersecting) statuses (gender and race/gender and sexuality) affect social expectations and pressures on women’s bodies? Where do you see the need for social change?
Remember to put your reading selections in conversation with one another, noting similarities in major ideas, conflicting perspectives, etc. Write at least 700 words (about 2-3 double-spaced pages). Failing to meet this minimum length will result in an automatic 5 point deduction from your score. Incorporate direct quotations from a minimum of 4 selections total from the assigned readings and provide a list of works cited formatted in MLA style. Introduce the quotations, give the context (title of selection, author), and include page numbers in your citation. Not including a correctly formatted list of works cited will result in an automatic 5 point deduction from your score.
