The Role of Gender in Science Fiction as Applied in the Television Show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and in Margaret Atwoods, The Handmaids Tale
This paper will seek to analyze the role of gender in science fiction as applied in the television show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and in Margaret Atwood’s, The Handmaid’s Tale. By showing the gender roles within these two media, we can see how the women portrayed offer a complex mix of male and female gender roles. In both they offer heroic versions of women, such as Offred and Buffy, whom take on agressive male gender roles to free themselves from male dominating hegemony.
