The Feminine Myst...Critique

Yes yes, I made a pun. No groaning, puns are great! Like Betty Friedan's book The Feminine Mystique  this blog aims to be a critique of literature and culture. Unlike that book, it aims to take a more lighthearted approach: and to critique more kinds of literature as well as pop culture (rather than high culture). That is, the culture of normal people not international elites. Literature here, includes not only books and plays but also films, tv, and even narrative-focused video games. 
Now, it is important that we all go in understanding what literary critique is, and what it is not. Literary critique is not deciding which works of literature are good and which are bad. Literary critique is about examining a work of literature, and the ways in which it reflects the world (or doesn't).  Most of my critique will be about whether the work portrays women in a realistic way, or an unrealistic one: and what type of gender roles the work seems to be promoting. I won't be making recommendations or telling you to avoid a work. Unrealistic literature is not bad literature. 
There are a few more terms to define here as well.
Feminist: the philosophy that women are, and deserve to be recognized as, equal to men.  Because women are equally capable and equally mature, feminists hold that they deserve to have the same opportunities as men. It should be noted that this philosophy is not inherently aligned with any political party: however feminism has been embraced by some parties and expressly rejected by others at particular historical moments.
Misogynistic: disrespectful or rude towards women. Hilariously, this word was coined in Ancient Athens, one of the most anti-feminist societies to have ever existed, to describe the Persians. I will tend to avoid this word because of it's political connotations and it's general extremely negative implications. The opposite of feminism is anti-feminism. 
Respect: awareness of the differences between people, whether individuals or groups thanks to differences in experience. No individual or group can dictate what another should do or feel, nor can they act on another without express consent.
Consent: an explicit affirmative answer to a question which both parties in a transaction clearly understand.
Because this will come up inevitably and these words are used incorrectly so often. These are scientific definitions derived from biological and anthropological studies respectively.
Sex: There are two biologically determined sexes: male and female. Females have eggs and the organs necessary for the reproductive process.  Males have sperm and any organs necessary to catalyze the reproductive process. Species also have secondary sex characteristics which are used for signalling while mating.
Gender: refers to an individual's social role, whether chosen or assigned. Each society assigns social roles differently, and this may or may not depend on biological characteristics. Individuals of a particular gender identity tend to have a relatively unified manner of dress and behavior, and tend to define themselves by a certain set of archetypes. They may gravitate towards certain professions or certain social institutions. Modern western society, unfortunately in part because of past feminists, has a general confusion about gender.
TL;DR: "man" and "woman" are genders: "male" and "female"are sexes. The two things may or may not match.
