So, I feel like I want to get a feminist perspective (and maybe a little later a bit more of a “general one”) on the fairly recent-ish depictions of female puberty in media. And how they differ from previous generations/eras.
I might focus a bit more on the youth programming, but all are welcome.
This article, from my country’s ABC, seems to lay out the current mode of such depictions. (In my country of Australia, this is just a generic public access TV channel, with ties to general journalism. It’s a pretty politically neutral source, just for the context.)
What are your thoughts of these depictions? Any complaints? Any differences between these and those you grew up with?
Comment as you please
