  • Womansploitation: Violence Against Women as Entertainment – Live at Phoenix Fan Fusion

    Womansploitation: Violence Against Women as Entertainment – Live at Phoenix Fan Fusion
    Jun 25 2026
    Live from Phoenix Fan Fusion, Olivia and Shauna head a panel to discuss a serious topic with their characteristic dark humor and feminist sass. Womansploitation - using violence against women as entertainment - is found in movies, in television shows, in books, in true crime documentaries and podcasts. Obviously, there is money to be made in victimizing women for the enjoyment of an audience. The Junkies look at the history of this sub-genre, discuss some examples and go into why it’s so popular and the effects this has on society. With the help of the audience and research, they ask and answer questions like 'when does depicting violence against women become critique — and when does it become consumption?' and 'is the violence in the story a “narrative necessity” or exploitation?' Olivia and Shauna give examples of movies, TV shows and directors (maybe some of your favorites!) that have been challenged for their use of violence against girls and women. From 'fridging' to final girls to the perfect true crime victim, the Junkies cover the many, many ways women are exploited for entertainment.

    In PCJ Pops, the Pop Culture Junkies share their recommendations on what to experience in pop culture, today and yesterday.

    Olivia recommends the riveting Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke, a new book that offers a science-fictional look at today’s tradwife movement by time-traveling a tradwife-influencer poser back in time to 1855, forcing her to do without modern conveniences. Find it at your local library or independent bookstore, or stream on Spotify with a subscription.
