Militarized femininity: Wonder Woman, new Lara Croft series, Natalie Portman’s upcoming film, nearly all female leads and supporting roles in Star Wars. Warriors, generals, militant rebels, assassins. What is the marketable, empowered ‘feminine’ as a mirror to the ‘masculine’ in the most militarized culture in history? The U.S. military is the largest organization to have ever existed , and we are a product of that culture, even our feminism and resistance.
