Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: This paper examines The Powerpuff Girls as a site of feminist discourse. Through the methodology of discourse analysis, the paper proposes that the cartoon reflects changes in feminism in American society and, consequently, in the construction of fictional feminist characters. It begins with an overview of popular press commentary linking The Powerpuff Girls with feminism. It then offers an overview of feminist theory and previous scholarship on mediated feminist discourse. Finally, it turns to an analysis of how The Powerpuff Girls subverts stereotypical norms in the superhero genre as it negotiates third wave feminism and the concept of girl power within the larger context of feminist thought.
