qoutes:

From The Possum, The Hag and the Rhinestone Cowboy: Hard Country Music and the Burlesque of Abjection, Barbara Ching, from Whiteness A Critical Reader, NYU Press, 1992.

Along with creating a sorrowful rustic persona, these singers use the typically burlesuqe techinqies of imitation, allusion, and collusion to call attention to the fact that they are falling short of any number of cultural imperatives (118)

...the blues of white-trash tragedy--broken h omes, decript houses, blackout drinking, dead end jobs, and life sentences...

From Sexaulity in Adolsences Susan Moore and Doreen Rosenthal, Routledge, 1993

"Teenage Motherhood reamins overwhelmingly a working class affair" (qouting Hudson and Inechion), 147

From Virgins A culture History, Anke Berno, Granta Books.

Shame and the threat of ostracisim, which are shown here to run like contagion through the community in relentless, ever widening circles, are summoned to police the young womens sexual behaviour, her body and desire are not hers to do what she pleases, for her body posses a significant worth that goes beyond the merley personal. (139) discusing the 16th Century text Instruction of a Christian Woman, by Juan Vies

In the 19th Century, this anxiety also extended to working class women, esp those who worked in the factories...145

This call for a return to an idealised childhood purity, made by an adult woman in the name of feamle enmpowerment seems to be oddly troubling, 195 (re: Wendy Shalit)

The idea...(that) what it means to be an invidiudal has become inextricablly linked from sexual identity (169)
