It explores frictions and discords, including those between feminist women fans and other members in their communities, and between the fan and the object of her fandom. This book examines the intersection of fandom and feminism through the lenses of gender, ethnicity and age, and provides an in-depth and intersectional perspective on fan communities and the layered discrimination and marginalization enfolded in them. Based on 40 in-depth interviews with women fans of Star Wars and Doctor Who, this book highlights the different aspects of a feminist woman fans identity: becoming, being, belonging, representing, and reconciling. Each chapter in this book unravels the complexity, ambivalence, and contradictions between feminism and fandom, and reveals the tactics women develop to overcome and harmonize them. Neta Yodovich is a postdoctoral researcher who is currently studying cultural policy in a research project funded by the EU Horizon 2020 framework. She completed her PhD in Sociology at the University of Manchester. Her PhD research on feminist women fans serves as the basis for this book. She has previously published peer-reviewed journal articles about women fans, gamers, and representations of singlehood in popular culture in Sociology, Feminist Media Studies, Games and Culture, Womens Studies in Communication, and the European Journal of Womens Studies. 001448577 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001448577 650_0 $$aFeminism. 001448577 650_0 $$aScience fiction fans. 001448577 650_0 $$aWomen$$xRecreation. 001448577 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001448577 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3031040783$$z9783031040788$$w(OCoLC)1310395847 001448577 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aYodovich, Neta, author.$$tWomen negotiating feminism and science fiction fandom$$z9783031040788$$w(OCoLC)1328018220 001448577 830_0 $$aPalgrave fan studies. 001448577 852__ $$bebk 001448577 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-04079-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001448577 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1448577$$pGLOBAL_SET 001448577 980__ $$aBIB 001448577 980__ $$aEBOOK 001448577 982__ $$aEbook 001448577 983__ $$aOnline 001448577 994__ $$a92$$bISE
