Large Bodies on the Small Screen. Non-normative Images of Masculinity of the New Generation TV Series

Abstracts

EN

In my paper I described the bodies of male characters from popular American TV series (Louie, Looking, Broad City) and analyzed the relationship between large body and other people, work culture and society. In what way did feminism change our understanding of what is “female” and what is “male”? The social stereotype still considers that “doing something like a man” means doing it right, while “doing something like a girl” means doing it clumsily, wrongly or sloppily. In my paper I would like to focus primarily on the aspect of male body and what it means to be “looking like a man”. Is there such a thing as feminist political correctness regarding sexuality and the male body?
