Drawing from popular culture over the past two decades, this collection of essays explores the question "Why do brilliant women make society ill at ease?," revealing how the media both constantly affirms stereotypes of femininity while challenging the stigmatization of smart women. Simultaneous.
Mainstream society has often had a deeply rooted fear of intelligent women. Why do brilliant women make society ill at ease? Focusing on the US, Sherrie Inness and contributors explore this question in the context of the last two decades, arguing that more intelligent women are appearing in popular culture than ever before.
