Examples of Post Feminism in Popular Culture (maybe just add to the existing examples section -- Added to section on examples of postfeminism that was already created)
Representations of post feminism can be found in pop culture. Television shows like Sex and the City show examples of post feminism. Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the City is an example of a character living a post feminist life. While her character attempts to live a sexually liberated lifestyle, Bradshaw is stuck endlessly pursuing the love and validation of a man. The balance between Bradshaw's independent life as a successful columnist and desire to find a husband exemplifies the tension of post feminism. examples can also be found in Pretty Little Liars. The novels explore the complexity of girlhood in a society that assumes gender equality, which is in line with postfeminism. The constant surveillance and self policing of the series' protagonists depicts the performance of heterosexuality, hyperfemininity, and critical gaze forced upon girls. The materialism and performance from the girls in Pretty Little Liars critiques the notion that society has full gender equality, and thus offers a critique of postfeminism.

Peer Reviews: Maternity Clothing (review left on the article talk page) There's a lot of great information and detail on this page. I especially liked the section on Cultural Trends in Maternity Wear. I noticed in that section, that you are missing a citation or a link to a reference page when you talk about the fabric, elastane. I also feel as if this section goes well along with the history section. Based on the title I assumed there would more information on how different cultures dressed, since the history section predominantly talked about Western women. I would consider adding more to this section about how eastern cultures for example dressed. Hcsamuel (talk) 03:23, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Naomi Alderman (placed review in the sand box of User:Tarapark96) This is a great addition. The tone of it is neutral. My only critique is that you expand on your first paragraph's point that feminism was understood to be at it's peak. You could talk about the time period and what was happening to give this point more context. Hcsamuel (talk) 03:33, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
