Misrepresentation --> Miss Representation

Miss Representation Trailer (2011)

Yesterday, I attended a screening of this film that discusses some
of the issues that revovle around WOMEN. When I mean
issues I'm talking about how WOMEN are REPRESENTED
in the world. We're seen as sex objects most of the time
and if not that, then we're automatically perceived as a housewife,
or inferior to men. 

WHY MUST WOMEN BE SO DEGRADING TO THEMSELVES?

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE WOMEN'S MOVEMENT?

I want to discuss this matter since I talk about beauty products
all the time and I feel that this matter pertains to women.
We see skinny ass models and feel the need to be thinner.
Or, we see makeup gurus who put on makeup and then
some feel obligated to even purchase the products they use.
I admit, I'm like that sometimes and I don't like it, but y'know
I'm a woman and I'm going to fall into society's "beauty trap."
There's got to be something that can change...
for the future and...
for the next generation.

Women are supposed to be stronger in society now with more
REPRESENTATION AND EQUAL RIGHTS.
I don't necessarily see that.

For example, let's look at the last presidential election.
Sarah Palin, as unintelligent as she comes off as,
has more popularity, per se, because she appears to 
be young, feminine, and even some men say sexy.
Hillary Clinton, on the other hand, appears to be old,
grumpy, and a cock killer.
Some men admit to masturbating while watching Sarah Plain.
WTF?!
Where is America heading to?
People always complain about women being inferior to men,
blah, blah, blah. Ok...so do something about it!

TAKE A STAND! LET OTHERS KNOW!

HERE'S HOW:

1) Sign the missrepresentation pledge on:
2) watch the Miss Representation (2011) trailer (above) or even the movie
3) Become a REP (see website for details)
4) Vote for WOMEN
5) more ideas listed on the website above

DISCLAIMER: I am NOT blogging about this just to advertise
or whatever you think about the website and/or movie.
This is strictly based on my opinion and how I feel about this matter:
unrepresentation of women.
