Woman: Encyclopedia - Womanism
Defined by feminist author, Alice Walker, Womanism is a commonly used term that was coined to mean specifically African American Feminism, but it has developed into a more encompassing version of feminism that crosses lines of race and class.

The need for this term arose from the early feminist movements that were led specifically by white women who advocated social changes such as the right to move from th ...

Woman: Encyclopedia - A Vindication of the Rights of Woman

Written in 1792, Mary Wollstonecraft's A Vindication of the Rights of Woman is one of the earliest works on "the woman question" and influenced the earliest feminists in England and America in the 19th century, primarily in their distancing themselves from the work due to the controversial life of its author.

Woman: Encyclopedia II - Woman - Terms

The English language's original word for "woman" was Old English wīf, akin to German Weib; it later became the modern word "wife." The modern word "woman" etymologically derives from wīfmann, with the addition of mann, "person", from Germanic mannaz. This formation is peculiar to English. The equivalents for "man" in Old English were wer (a cognate of Latin vir, "man") and wǣpnedmann, literally "weaponed person". As previously mentioned, the term man continues to carry its original sense of "Human", though this usage results in an asymmetry which is ...

Woman: Encyclopedia - Bearded woman

The bearded woman has been a phenomenon of legend, curiosity, ridicule and more recently political statement. A small number of women are able to grow what may appear to be a Beard. This is usually not truly beard growth, but simply dark body hair. Cultural pressure leads most to remove it, as it may be viewed as a social stigma. Notable exceptions were the famous (and usually fake) bearded women of the circus sideshows of the 19th and early 20th centu ...

Woman: Encyclopedia II - Pretty Woman - Overview

Pretty Woman is the highest-grossing film of the romantic comedy genre, and possibly the most well-known. Set in Hollywood during the 1980s, its themes include the tension between romantic love and social class: the main characters represent utter opposites in social class and wealth, while both working in occupations considered indecent by mainstream society, and yet are given sympathetic depiction. The male lead, based in part upon Henry Kravis, is a businessman Edward Lewis (played by Richard Gere). While ruthless in busines ...

Woman: Encyclopedia II - Pretty Woman - Trivia

Possibly due to the controversial subject matter, the movie was heavily edited. Groundbreaking on account of its sympathetic depiction of an occupation thought dishonorable and indecent by most Americans, the film has been described as featuring "a prostitute with a heart of gold". The original script painted Vivian as hypersexual and a heavy drug user. These traits, detrimental to the otherwise sympathetic portrayal of her, were removed or incorporated into the character of Vivian's friend, Kit. These "cut scenes" have been found in ...

Woman: Encyclopedia II - Pretty Woman - Themes

This 1990 feature film, directed by Garry Marshall, has become a classic love story that shows its viewers that love knows no boundaries or social status. The story shows that sometimes the people who influence and touch a person’s life are those that are least expected to do so. The personalities and characters of Vivian and Edward best represent this message, because the only thing that the two have in common is each other. Sometimes people learn the most from those who are the most different from them. While Vivian and Edward rub off on each other throughout the entire movie, they also ...
