(Not-So-)Wordless Wednesday: Women are…

This video had a brilliant effect on me-goosebumbs, teary eyes etc! Its an opportunity for me to share this website too. Take a look at www.missrepresentation.org if you haven't already and join the movement!


Women are...



Here is a brilliant trailer of the movie Missrepresentation. I SO totally loved it and cannot wait to get the DVD and watch it. Who is making one for India?




Here is a link to an article on www.psychologytoday.com on 10 ways to reshape media's message about women and girls.

  1. Aarathi,

    I am totally with you on this one. TOTALLY. At first, I could not kind of relate to the first video. I was like, "Okay...why are they trying to prove themselves so badly? Whom are they trying to convince?" It seemed like saying "Listen, women are not weak. Women are not weak"

    However the second one totally won me over. The media is a key culprit to the skewed sex confidence today and something got to be done about it. However can such campaigns do much? I wonder.

    You have got me thinking yet again. Thanks for the post!
