I finally finished watching the film "Moxie" (Girls Want Revolution) in time for Women's Day.
Shame on the female body, appearance has been a constant harassment in our lives. In the movie, on the first day of returning to school in the summer vacation, students began to publish lists of women who viewed women from a male perspective: "Best Ass", "Best Bedmate" and "Best Breasts". In this list, Not only the best, but also a list of many abusive words. It seems that in the eyes of this kind of boys (note, not all men), it is normal for women to be objectified, scrutinized, compared, degraded, and made fun of.
I think there were such ignorant and brainless boys when I was in school. They would ask the female classmates to hold a piece of paper between their knee joints, and if a girl was too thin and the paper fell off, they would whisper and laugh. At that age when most girls don't know what the P station is, ignorant men are self-righteous and make fun of girls who don't know.
Body shaming is not a new topic either. It is not unusual for women to be discussed because of their appearance and figure. The girl in the movie was sent home by the principal because she had a plump body wearing a suspender, not the plump girl who wore the same suspender without any problems. The problem behind this phenomenon is that no matter what our body looks like or how we dress, it is not our problem, but the problem of those who have turbulent thoughts in their hearts, but few people realize this. a little.
I was also told that I was fat by my side, and even said more excessive words than that, which once hit me hard and even doubted myself. But now, no way. No one, no one is qualified to judge your body and make you doubt yourself. Your body, your soul, your everything is always yours, and only you are your own spokesman.
For girls everywhere, find your voice.
We roar, we roar, we scream, not for special treatment, not to be valued, just to get what we deserve.
