MissRepresentation: How We React

The portrayal of women and girls in the media is appalling, but the reaction to it is another situation, equally appalling at times, but also astonishing and admirable at other times.

As I briefly mentioned in my other MissRepresentation post, I see a lot of girls degrading themselves on social media, but I also see a lot of positive things. Although not always happy vibes, a lot of girls are nothing but kind to each other online and in person. I love to see people posting about how happy they are or how beautiful other people are--inside and out. What I really love is seeing trends about self love or being confident in yourself, despite what men or even other girls will tell you.

Of course, there are so many people who are against feminist movements as well. Although I can't understand where they're coming from, I suppose they have their own beliefs. Some people may fight against feminism, and others will fight for it, but hopefully those who aren't for such a beautiful movement now, will be in the future.
