Is there a difference between a sex kitten and a sex symbol? 71.63.88.166 23:32, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. A sex symbol is media product. A sex kitten is a characterisation more likely to be attributed to a female than a male. A person may be either, both or neither. Cuddlyable3 (talk) 11:47, 15 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Annotated Bib Rough Draft[edit]

Meah, Angela, Jenny Hockey, and Victoria Robinson. 2011. “I’m a Sex Kitten, Aren’t I…” Australian Feminist Studies 26 (67): 57-71. doi:10.1080/08164649.2010.546328. Meah et. al studied the history of exploring one’s sexuality. They found that the “celebration of women’s sexuality” officially started in the 1960s and 70s (Meah et. al, 58). The three researchers emphasized that there were categories of women at this time who were coerced into obscuring their sexuality such as white and black working-class women and women with disabilities. In a study that took place between 2001-2003, Meah et. al studied the “making of heterosexual relationships among women and men in East Yorkshire in the United Kingdom” (Meah et. al, 60). One person in the sample, a sixty-year old woman, told Meah: “...could’ve just laid there an’ left it in all night… which I ‘ave done… I loved it in that bed with ‘im… I’m just a sex kitten aren’t I… I just loved to be near ‘im, you know.”

Grace, Kevin Michael. 1998. “Sex Kittens with Painted Claws.” Alberta Report/Newsmagazine 25 (11): 41. Kevin Michael Grace wrote about The Spice Girls and the beginning of “Girl Power” which was first coined by the girl group in 1996. It is believed that “sex kitten” is an umbrella term of “Girl Power.” Girl Power can be summarized by not letting people walk over you or other women, and fighting for gender equality. To endorse Girl Power is to support the feminist movement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mknealing (talkcontribs) 17:54, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
