Miss Representation

I'm watching Miss Representation, a documentary about the misrepresentation of women in America, especially in the media.

Can I curl up and cry now? Because being a woman in America sucks. A whole lot. Especially if you're trying to do something with your life, like becoming something other than a sex toy.

I remember growing up and learning about the presidents, and asking my mother if girls were allowed to be presidents. Yes. Yes, they are.

So, girlies, rise up. Don't let yourself be defined by the ways that the world defines a woman, because they suck, and they're ruled by men (honestly, statistically, they are. I'm not making this up). You are beautiful, I am beautiful, and I'm not just saying this because of the generic lies that do not hide the true meaning of the companies that produce trash that throw us through the mud. They may tell us we are beautiful, but they don't mean it. I mean it.

We have to change this world, one girl at a time.
