Tough Gynes: Violent Women in Film as Honorary Men

In Borderline Stan Goff unpacked the association of masculinity with war. In Caeneus using an incisive and often darkly humorous study of nine films featuring violent female leads he untangles the confusion about masculinity constructed as violence when our popular stories feature women as violent protagonists. Whether read individually or with a group Caeneus raises compelling questions about gender and violence with a few provisional answers. Plus you get to watch movies as you read it.
