As you reflect on the gender stereotypes that pervade our culture, consider their implications: are they dangerous pigeonholes that limit understanding and personal growth (as many strident writers have noted), or are they less insidious charicatures, more deserving of playful mocking and armchair speculation (Dave Barry and
The Onion) than passionate rebuke (Sut Jahlly and Jackson Katz in
Tough Guise)? Additionally, what gender issues does screenwriter Tina Fey explore (and lampoon) in
Mean Girls?
