Dissertation

Feminist theory and Gaming representation
Following the hand in for my portfolio work, on the 3rd...or was it the 4th? Either one, I decided to turn all my focus back onto my dissertation (which I started during our study week). My dissertation is about women's representation within games, whether it's truly video games fault for our hyper sexualised views of women or whether it's part of a larger social narrative that makes it OK to objectify women. 

These are just some of the books I purchased to help me with my research, some I found more helpful than others, like the more recently written Gaming representation was much more useful in my writing than say barbie and mortal kombat, porn& pong also had some useful points, but was overall not helpful for the argument I was trying to make within my dissertation.
