It depends on how, exactly, she defines "programming." I think that, for one, societal expectations of... 33975@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-11T18:57:44-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033969.html I just wanted to make a comment on the article about “Hindu Women’s Activism in India and the Questions it Raises” by Amrita Basu. Reading the article made me realized that every time I encounter a Muslim woman who is... 33969@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-11T15:42:08-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033967.html I don't know if anybody saw the dance concert in Rarig Center's Whiting Proscenium Theater this weekend, entitled Dance Revolutions, but it was fantastic. There was one piece, The Bleeding Heart (choreographed by Carl Flink) that was particularly interesting. It... 33967@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-11T13:04:21-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033924.html The article by Ellen Neuborne intrigued me. Am I going to encounter such difficulties when I enter the workplace? I actually have thought about that since middle school probably. Now I have decided to enter a male-dominated career field, filmmaking,... 33924@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-10T10:27:30-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033692.html Amy stated today in lecture that cultural and traditional practices cannot be used to say that certain people are not observing human rights. I agree with that statement, but where do we draw the line between what is "okay" to... 33692@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-07T10:22:14-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033495.html Porn. My friends like porn. One of them wants to start a porn magazine and is actually going in for a meeting with some kind of publisher today. I remember when they all passed around 'The Happy Hooker' which many... 33495@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-05T07:36:56-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033486.html Nochlin's essay "Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists" reminded me a lot of my intro to cultural studies class, in that it deconstructed the question and then tied it into various social issues, such the implications of the... 33486@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-04T21:57:12-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033485.html There has been a lot of discussion about the issues concerning the morality of the porn industry. The previous discussions have focused on the mentality of women inside the industry. While I feel that these issues are very important i... 33485@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-04T21:07:10-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033481.html So I can see by the blogs written that this is quite an interesting and controversial topic to discuss. I believe that everyone is entitled to their opinion although it may not be the same. I also believe that a... 33481@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-04T20:02:22-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033479.html In response to the girl in class Wednesday who couldn't fathom as to why someone would ever be a porn star, etc.. I'm going to have to throw the issue of money out there. Porn stars make LOTS of money.... 33479@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-04T18:58:46-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033474.html I liked a lot of the points Debbie made and would like to add to just why Girls Gone Wild is so disgusting. Other than the filmmakers clearly not having sober consent to film these women, the fact that the... 33474@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-04T16:53:57-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033365.html I found the article about the lack of great women artists kind of confusing, but that’s probably because I didn’t know a majority of the artists referred to, male or female. Even so, I think it raised some good points…or... 33365@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-02T00:25:53-06:00 http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/033361.html I think I’ve always kind of thought that porn is what it is. I mean, I don’t feel like it should be restricted or anything (well, viewing, yes, but its existence, no). Maybe I’m a little crazy in thinking that... 33361@http://blog.lib.umn.edu/wood0556/intro/ 2005-12-01T23:09:37-06:00
