"Miss Representation"

As a Women Studies minor and open feminist I have a lot of gripes about the media and the treatment/depiction of Women. My dear friend and Jeru roommate told me about this film that I should check out called Miss Representation. I really can't say anything more about it than the trailer already says so please watch it-

I hope that this does something to turn the media around, to turn our culture around. Something needs to change and I think this is it. If you want to learn more about the film go to their website: http://www.missrepresentation.org/

Take the pledge

Find a screening of the film

Write about your story as a woman, as a man who respects women.

Who ever you are- this isn't just a women's issue. After watching the trailer you must have noticed that most of the images of women were pornographic or alluded to sex- even Condalisa Rice. When the media turns the only women in politics into sex figures we have a problem.

Not to sound like any presidents or anything but we need change and we need to be that change.
