Preliminary Materials For a Theory of the Young-Girl
TiqqunThe Young-Girl is herself the product of misogyny, but the theory of the Young-Girl is not. Open up any women’s magazine and you’ll see for yourself.

dope. posits (collage-style) a general archetype of the spectacle-society’s ideal individual: naive and empty of inner meaning, excepting the desire to be in, part of, and for the spectacle; this emptiness allows others to project their own understandings, desires and expectations of society onto the individual; the archetypal “young girl” (who can be anyone) is simultaneously all parts of the society of the spectacle: the producer, the consumer, and the product consumed. blew my mind.
