What does it mean "like a girl" to you? Run like a girl, hit like a girl, kick like a girl. Have you ever thought of the negative impact of the stereotype have on girls and women during their puberty and beyond? The filmmaker of the video, Lauren Greenfiled has cast the question to the world by delivering messages from girls she interviewed with.
The words "like a girl" has always meant something bad, something we should avoid, it caused a huge confidence crisis over girls and women universally. Now or never. It's time to rewrite the rule,. Recreate the definition of genders. It's not an easy thing, but we have the potential to change the world. Always.
Here is another video that shows how "like a girl" limit the possibility of the future of a girl who may have had the possibility to make a great scientist. But because of her parents who are very protective about their daughter whose curiosity towards the nature, science and technology is interrupted.
The United States falls behind the rest of the world when it comes to the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math), and it is a big deal. Reshma Saujan, founder of Girls Who Code, strike a note of warning that 21st century and beyond will need more of those who get involved with the STEM majors and careers. It is very clear to see the fact that less girls has involved with STEM when compared to the male counterparts. What is your opinion?
