Annotated BibliographyMcCann, Hannah. “Is There Anything ‘Toxic’ about Femininity? The Rigid Femininities That Keep UsLocked In.”Psychology & Sexuality, vol. 0, no. 0, Routledge, June 2020, pp. 1–14.Taylor andFrancis+NEJM, doi:10.1080/19419899.2020.1785534.Summary: (Entry 1)This journal article uses toxic femininity as a jumping point to explore the gendered powerstructure. The author explores the terminology of toxic femininity in both popular and feministdiscourse and offers her approach, the notion of toxic femininity to explain the current structure thatkeeps people locked into gender stereotypes. In the journal article the author also further evaluates thedefinition and concept of rigid femininity: rigid femininities are proposed to specifically attend to the‘toxic’ attachments that maintain a strict gender binary. An instance of this, the public always limit thebehavior of female based on the traditional thoughts such as expect the female to be good in doinghousehold chores and always have a pretty outfit (wearing the dress and with long hair).Assess:This source is credible because its author, Hannah McCann is a prominent senior lecturer incultural studies at the University of Melbourne. Her works are mainly about theorizing femininity andshe has published few articles in several feminist theory journals before. For example, theEuropeanJournal of Women’s Studies,Australian Feminist Studies, andWomen's Studies Quarterly. Moreover,the people of publication, Taylor & Francis also try the best to ensure the accuracy of all the articlesfrom the publications.Reflect:I will use the definition and concept of a narrow lens discussed in this article in the introduction partto provide a clear image to the readers about the topic. Additionally, I will use that concept as a guidewhen I explore the microscope and sub-claims for the textual analysis essay. I can also use this sourceto interpret evidence to support my arguments in the essay.
