Women’s Rights:
Tights dresses, Smart Mouths and Dumb Comments
As many contributions
and advancements that women have made over the years it’s hard to believe that
women have reverted to the stereotypes of being paranoid, jealous and rude for no reason. I will argue that the women being portrayed on shows like Basketball Wives, Love and Hip Hop and Bad Girl's club are perforimng for an American audience that's addicted to Ignorance.
Granted, this isn't really the way women are, but if this is all America wants to see there's a good chance that all women will be perceived this way. Especially since a lot of women on the television are conveyed this way I feel like a lot of young women are acting like these girls on these shows because they think it's cute if they only knew....
Okay,Okay we can't blame everything on these women. The producers and writers of these shows love to show the women trash talking each other and getting to fights but they never show them resolving the problems and making up..ya know acting adults? Yeah we hardly see that.
"I am a feminist, and what that means to me is much the same as the meaning of the fact that I am Black: It means that I must undertake to love myself as though my very life depends on "self-love and self-respect" -June Jordan
I consider myself a feminist and I would love to see more women on t.v. quoting things like this apposed to "I'm the baddest bitch", "She can't do it like me" or "Her man want me anyway". It's not fair to any woman to have to compete with the stereotypes of television. That's why a lot of women feel mistreated in their relationships and friendships. It's impossible to fit into the stereotypes of girls and expect to be treated like a woman.
