Jamie's Peer Review by Susie Pew
I like the information you presented and I think it would work really well in the section labeled "feminism and the pin-up". It definitely adds to the argument of whether or not pin-up modeling can be considered a feminist subculture.

I would also suggest looking more into the fashion side of pin-up and how it has transgressed into modern society today. Maybe including a more in depth discussion on modern day pin-up makeup would benefit the page as well. You have really strong historical background, and that could also strengthen the historical part of the page as well.

Peer Review Response
Thanks Susie! I Think that it can be noted that pin-ups are historically not feminist because they were produced for the male gaze, but within this subculture there are women that are feminist that flip the narrative. Its almost as if pin-ups and feminist pin-ups are two separate subcultures, Sort of like an umbrella term. For example, punk; Within an subculture, there are different categories for like Afro-punk, skin heads, or emo punk.

In regards to pin-up fashion, it's a resurgence of 50's style housewife style. Modern day women want to express this style because they like the aesthetic but they want to do without the societal constructs of that time including women's oppression and segregation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jpegallery (talk • contribs) 01:27, 19 April 2018 (UTC) Jpegallery (talk) 01:44, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
