Toxic Geek Masculinity in Media

Sexism, Trolling, and Identity Policing

Anastasia Salter; Bridget Blodgett

978-3-319-66077-6

2017
Edition 1
- Analyzes the perceived status of geek identity as marginalized and threatened at a moment when geek culture is increasingly mainstreamed and brought before mass audiences
- Critically assesses the nature of the hero in geek-marketed media, both in spaces marked for science fiction and fantasy and in narratives that seek to reflect geek culture back at itself
- Sheds light upon increased attention to hostilities towards women at comic and film conventions, and the continual harassment and threats towards women across geek media who become visible as producers or fans
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
€100
