Hegemonic Masculinity, Oppositional Readings, Working Moms and Maternal Horrors.

THE ESSAY THAT STARTED THIS PODCAST: R.W. Connell's* theory of Hegemonic Masculinity argues that men exert their power in society through the expression of patriarchy to control the people through ideology. I take this argument, support it with Stuart Hall's Decoding principal and argue that it's so influential as an ideology, that when feminist works go out to debunk patriarchal norms, they sometimes end up perpetuating it instead. How is this possible? Take a look at 'Workin Moms' on Netflix.
