**the media being discussed in this analysis is the film MONSTER (2003) starring Charlize Theron. The film depicts the life of American serial killer, Aileen Wuornos.**
in the essay, incorporate course themes and topics such as how femininity can conflict with accepted definitions of crime, violence and disorder, the duality of women as both victims and offenders, repeated victimization of women resulting in criminality and violence against women in Canadian prisons. Another important topic to consider is the role of the media in the perception of female criminality. CLEARLY identify the crime and gender issue being discussed and make sure to incorprate feminist criminology into the essay as well as the pathologization of women who come into the criminal justice system.
The essay requires three external academic sources and two 

from the course. Use the following two sources as the course materials:

Chesney-Lind, M., & Pasko, L. (2013). Girls, gangs, and violence. In The female offender: Girls, women, and crime (pp. 33-56). Thousand Oakes CA: Sage.
Kilty, J. M., & Frigon, S. (2007). Karla Homolka—From a woman in danger to a dangerous
woman: Chronicling the shifts. Women & Criminal Justice, 17(4), 37-61.
