Horse Crazy explores the meaning behind the love between girls and horses. Jean O'Malley Halley, a self-professed "horse girl," contends that this relationship and its cultural signifiers influence the manner in which young girls define their identity when it comes to gender. Halley examines how popular culture, including the "pony book" genre, uses horses to encourage conformity to gender norms but also insists that the loving relationship between a girl and a horse fundamentally challenges sexist and mainstream ideas of girlhood.
Horse Crazy looks at the relationships between girls and horses through the frameworks of Michel Foucault's concepts of normalization and biopower, drawing conclusions about the way girls' agency is both normalized and resistant to normalization. Segments of Halley's own experiences with horses as a young girl, as well as experiences from the perspective of other girls, are sources for examination. "Horsey girls," as she calls them, are girls who find a way to defy the expectations given to them by society--thinness, obsession with makeup and beauty, frailty--and gain the possibility of freedom in the process. Drawing on Nicole Shukin's uses of animal capital theories, Halley also explores the varied treatment of horses themselves as an example of the biopolitical use of nonhuman animals and the manipulation and exploitation of horse life. In so doing she engages with common ways we think and feel about animals and with the technologies of speciesism.Binding Type: Paperback

Wow, Dove really outdid themselves. Great product.
Scent: Fragranced, Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Wow, what a difference what a difference Amazon basic body wash is what I was using before to be honest and it used to be very good. I don’t know if they changed the formula but that formula now it doesn’t lather up. You have to use half the bottle to get it to lather up this one lathers up amazingly well and you only need a few pushes. As a guy, I love it. We have dry skin too, just like anybody else so between moisturizer and lather , the scent the skin protection the skin softeners the whole thing it’s great. And you get a lot of of it too, which is awesome so overall at least to me a great value for the money

Best skin care product ever tried
I am 74 years old and have been using this product for 23 days. I could see a difference the first time using it. My face was a lot smoother and hydrated. I apply it after cleansing my face morning and night followed by my regular moisturizer. It has diminished wrinkles and makes my face glow. It also blends well with liquid foundation. I have been getting compliments but have not told anyone what I am using yet. It also helps to smooth the tops of my hands and arms. I have tried many skin care products and never gotten results like this.

Amazing Serum
This serum is one of the best I’ve ever used, & I’ve tried many. It’s non-greasy, light, absorbs into skin well,, & has really improved the texture of my skin. I am amazed at how well it works on fine lines, deep wrinkles ,& large pores. Wish I had taken a before & after photo. Highly recommended, & I have mature skin.
