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

Did not work for my skin
I ordered this for a more natural at home remedy for my eczema but it did not work. Even after seeing a dermatologist and healing my eczema using this product did not help my skin sadly.

Great Item! Performs better than any higher priced name brand foaming soap!
Scent: Mango, Size: 64 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
One thing I don't like about foaming hand soap is when it doesn't foam. I mean c'mon, the title of the product says foaming, so it should, foam! I've tried numerous brands of foaming soap for my dispenser and I always thought my dispenser was the issue because the soap would never come out with a good lathering foam. Well, I finally found a product, and surprisingly a brand I'm unfamiliar with or ever seen in the stores that in my opinion has far exceeded my expectations when it comes to foaming hand soap. The foaming pump dispenses just the right amount without going overboard, and it makes the product last forever. I work a lot in a job where I am in constant need to wash my hands constantly so I go through tons of soap! I love that I don't have to spend a fortune, and the mango scent is really nice without being to overbearing. It lathers well, rinses well and makes my hands clean. It is a half gallon but trust me, as someone who washes their hands very often, more often actually, that it lasts long. I'm looking forward to trying the other scents from this brand. Oh, and it does make your hands smell as nice as the mango scent too which is a pleasant bonus. All in all, I'm satisficed with this foaming hand soap and pretty much have found my new favorite brand without costing me an arm and leg for something that may or may not foam well.
