Abstract

Contemporary Young Adult literature is a favored genre for exploring sexual assault, yet rarely interrogates the social structures underpinning rape culture. In its representation of heterosexual relationships, Young Adult paranormal romance offers insight into the processes and structures that uphold rape culture. Genre tropes normalize abusive behavior and gender ideals, demonstrating the explicit and implicit construction of rape culture, culminating in the depiction of supernatural possession analogous to rape. Here, I reflect on power, control, rape culture, and girlhood in a textual analysis of Nina Malkin’sSwoon, Becca Fitzpatrick’sHush, Hush, and Sarah Rees Brennan’sThe Demon’s Covenant. A constructive reading reflects implicit cultural discourses presented to the girl reader, who can apply this to her own negotiation of girlhood.

(Para)使强奸文化正常化

当代青年文学是探究性侵犯的热门流派，但很少质疑支撑强奸文化的社会结构。在对异性恋关系的表现中，《青壮年》提供了对维持强奸文化的过程和结构的洞察。类型修辞使虐待行为和性别理想正常化，展示了强奸文化的显性和隐性建构，最终以类似于强奸的超自然占有的描述告终。在这里，我通过对尼娜·马尔金的《昏厥》、贝卡·菲茨帕特里克的《嘘，嘘》和莎拉·里斯·布伦南的《恶魔之约》的文本分析，反思了权力、控制、强奸文化和少女时代。建设性阅读反映了呈现给女孩读者的隐含文化话语，女孩可以将其应用于自己的少女时代谈判。
