Sweconpoddar 96 – Female Masculinity in SF with Anna Bark Persson

The sf-genre is filled with examples of the ”tough chick” heroine, perfectly balanced between femininity and masculinity, who kicks butt and shoots guns while still being hot.

This lecture was recorded at Swecon 2019 – Replicon in Västerås Sweden Participant: Anna Bark Persson The music is from Sands Of Time (Psychadelik Pedestrian) / CC BY-NC 3.
