Im 52 this year and I feel like I have let my daughter and every other young women in my life down. I totally agree. I am only twenty and it left me fearful of what I will someday bring my kids into.
It also left me feeling empowered though because I believe that change can be made and this movie helps emphasize that. These women make great points but it is very bias as most documentaries have to be. I turned it off when it was showing Angelina Jolie pregnant and stating that women are only valuable to men while they are sexually active and able to bare children. The double standards in our feminist driven society is absurd.
A women on the other hand, will only be interested in a man or opportunity for the duration of time that it benefits her. All future promises made together of life plans will become null and void if he could not provide for her.
Men are shamed into organizing their life around providing and protecting women at any cost. There are hundreds of examples in the media of men valuing intelligence and character among other traits over beauty and sex but the documentary neglected any balanced examples.
Too bad you turned it off mid-way through, you would have seen that the way men are pressured in our society was also addressed later on. It should also be taken into account that much of the mainstream media, which is supposed to be geared towards both genders, is biased by men.
If this documentary focused on the struggles of both men and women in equal measure, it would no longer be a documentary about women. Finally, in response to your last sentance, refer back to my first sentance. There were many well-spoken, intelligent men and boys interviewed throughout the documentary, as well as many more women and girls — because who better to talk about the struggle women face today with the way we are represented, than them. If you are really interested in making a difference, get informed, watch a full documentary and read a full book before making uninformed comments.
If women are able to acknowledge the struggles men face daily, after going through their fare share throughout history, maybe you should be able to acknowledge ours as well. One glaring thing about this documentary is that it shows how low white men who tend to suck up to those in power, are so weak and dumb, really, that they have to degrade women in any way they can.
There are some really stupid women too who go along with this but by and large, the men are the problem. I feel sorry for the good men out there. Helps to keep the acid reflux under control! Boys learn that their success is tied to dominance, power, and aggression. We must value people as whole human beings, not gendered stereotypes.
