Abstract | To many who espouse feminist ideals or take a critical approach to gender relations, Holland and Eisenhart's (1990) observations of college women in the late 1970s and early 1980s are grim: At the two institutions that served as the field site for Holland and Eisenhart's study, "the peer culture established an ethos for women that emphasized romantic relationships with men as a major route to self-worth and prestige". Being perceived as (hetero)sexually attractive and having a "high-status" boyfriend elevated a young woman's standing among her classmates, which meant that schoolwork and friendship were pushed to the side. This study is designed to probe more deeply the work of Holland and Eisenhart (1990), with attention to the viability of their findings almost 15 years later. (Contains 1 note.) (ERIC). |
