Document Summary
Sex becomes the number one commodity, even more. Two theoreti(cid:272)al fe(cid:373)i(cid:374)ist"s frameworks to know: 1. a). radical feminism: which argues that sexual agency can only be achieved by wo(cid:373)e(cid:374)"s free e(cid:454)pressio(cid:374) of their se(cid:454)ualit(cid:455). As lo(cid:374)g as wo(cid:373)e(cid:374)"s sexuality is controlled, women cannot be free. b/c allows women to not only consume sexual material, but they can also produce it. Transnational feminism conclude that cyberspace is not a positive space for women of free expression. Cyberspace as a hypersexualized space important than food. Every object out there is sexualized, like cars to food. 2. sex itself becomes reduced to a very limited and narrow understanding of what sex is. 4. in a hypersexualized culture the line between looking sexy and acting sexy. 5. in hyper-sexualized culture the issue of disability, being seen, or being noticed. The term spectacles is advance capitalism and the new mass media.
