Miss Cherry Blossom Meets Mainstream America
King O Riain, Rebecca (2005) Miss Cherry Blossom Meets Mainstream America. In: UNSPECIFIED New York University Press, pp. 204-221. AbstractDenigrated as "low-brow" culture and antifeminist in the past, beauty pageants have been largely ignored within sociology and Asian American Studies. White feminist critiques of beauty and specifically of beauty pageants (Wolf 1991; Bordo 1993) rightly analyze the detrimental effects pageants can have on women. | Keywords: | Asian American, Beauty Pageants |
