In this article, Yale student, Catherine Dinh, argues that the recent increase in contraceptives and equal education has shifted female gender norms to include more masculine qualities and thus allowing them to “get ahead”. Her article made me rethink gender as a Venn diagram of acceptable “selves” in which the size of each circle (or the number of socially-acceptable qualities for each gender) is dictated by society. For my project, this makes me want to focus on what gender-inclusive and gender-exclusive qualities are identifiable in social media and if this represents a noticeable gender rank in society.
