Abstract: | My research delves into the complex interplay between hyperfemininity and gender performance within my own life, employing autoethnography as a methodological lens. Guided by the theory of gender performativity, which posits that gender is constructed through repeated actions and behaviours, I examine my commitment to performing hyperfemininity—a style entrenched in heterosexist and sexist ideals. The exploration encompasses interconnected aspects such as girlhood, agency, control, power, and the gaze. |
