Resource summary
Genre & Gender in TV narratives
Feminine Narratives
expose contradictions within patriarchy
status quo in constant state of disruption
address viewers whose gender interest denied by dominant ideology
allows resistive readings
pleasure ongoing
Masculine Narratives
gap between ideological construction of masculinity and social experience of majority of men
excessive displays of masculinity
pleasure centres on climax, restore equilibrium
need for constant re-achievement of masculinity
negotiation with dominant ideology
Soap Opera
Disruption
never in state of equilibrium
Deferment
complex obstacles between desire and fulfilment
Sexuality, empowerment (Davies 1984)
women's body is a weapon against men
women's sexuality is heard, spoken
pleasure is in how event occurs rather than in events themselves
seduction & emotion
men & women = equal
men shown as caring, emotional
Villain: macho, assertive
Villainess: pregnancy, sexuality are power
Structure
closure at end of each episode
single plot, lead characters
compress time (not 'real' time)
women are victims, not professionals, powerful
professional, public setting
sensitivity is a threat to masculinity
Genre = classification system grouping works by similarity
text belongs to one or more genres
change/evolve over time
Mobility & Hybridity
shifting boundaries
genre transformation always develops from other genres
ideological (different world view)
economical (new audiences)
experimentation
desire for originality
Problems
genre is an abstract conception (Fiske)
merging media & genre (cartoons)
themes: any theme in any genre
male/female representation remain embedded in human mind & passed onto next generations
