What expectations are there for women looking to make a name for themselves in the public eye? How can we dismantle these stereotypes?<\/h3>\n

Tam-Anh Nguyen, 21, Dream Job: Film Maker<\/strong><\/h4>\n“The idea of a woman who knows what she wants (and deserves) is just really threatening, and I think that\u2019s in any industry.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
What I\u2019ve noticed is that women who exert more of what our culture deems to be “traditionally masculine” \u2014 traits like being \u201coutspoken” or “assertive” \u2014 are often castigated and labeled as demanding and anal (those are the more mild terms). The idea of a woman who knows what she wants (and deserves) is just really threatening, and I think that\u2019s in any industry. On a grand scale, its really daunting to think about and I don\u2019t claim to have an answer on how to dismantle all these -isms, but on a more personal level in terms of the daily struggles I face, I\u2019ve just made it a point to never waver in my particularities and to not apologize or hesitate when asking for very basic things like to be paid for a gig or to spend another hour editing down a clip until it\u2019s where I want it to be.<\/p>\n

Kimberlie Montano, 19, Dream Job: Model and Set Designer\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n“I think a way to part from these stereotypes of women in the mass public is to have more stuff made for women BY women [because] I think a lot of it starts from the media not being honest about women.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
[Some expectations are that one must] always be \u201cdone up\u201d\u00a0and tolerable of\u00a0all the rules that come with being a woman.\u00a0Rules as in it’s almost an obligation for women to be overly sexy from a man’s point of view \u2013 like butt pics, lingerie, boob pics, etc (even though those might not be how a woman would make herself feel sexy). A way to break away from this is to not put up with it and to tell other girls that’s it’s okay to be sexy, but be your own sexy. Not the “man’s” sexy. And to not\u00a0do anything out your comfort zone, whether it\u2019s a photo, a video, a day at the beach, literally anything!<\/p>\n
You can see how mainstream content is mostly brought to you by men because their selling points are for\u00a0men. For example, an Axe fragrance commercial will have a guy spray this cologne and a dozen of half naked woman run to him, rub on him. It’s not realistic and it’s very objectifying for women. Women are used as props instead of actual human beings in today’s media, but it really has to do with a lot of men being in control, the source and power of what we see in media. I think a way to part from these stereotypes of women in the mass public is to have more stuff made for women BY women [because] I think a lot of it starts from the media not being honest about women.\u00a0We need more women writers,\u00a0directors, producers etc. on\u00a0big motion\u00a0pictures.<\/p>\n

The expectations set for women looking to make a name for themselves might revolve around an easy come up. I don’t feel like the [come up] process is respected enough and some may not realize that success never happens without serious dedication. Women also don’t exactly have it easy with being taken seriously in the creative realm. Ultimately, I don’t feel like enough is expected of me, which is why I go out of my way to put my all into my craft. Women’s empowerment means understanding and embracing our power as women. It means breaking through oppressive barriers to achieve what we truly want. It also means unlearning some of the small minded standards set up for woman and what’s deemed as appropriate or not.<\/p>\n

To put it shortly, the\u00a0expectation is to sit there and look pretty. We can dismantle these stereotypes by speaking out on issues and staying true to ourselves throughout the process of moving up in the public eye. We’re much more than pretty faces, we’re powerful and intelligent young women who deserve to be acknowledged when speaking out on important topics. Important topics to me are sexism and racial injustice. Many important people choose not to speak out about these topics and stay silent. I hold these topics very close to my heart as a women and person of color. I feel it’s important that we discuss these topics until we can resolve the problems. If we don’t speak out it will not change anything or make any progress. All of our voices need to be heard loud and clear.\u00a0[Women with public attention] have the power to make a bigger impact when they speak out on these topics \u2013 they have a bigger platform. They have people who look up to them and will listen to them. If they speak out on these topics people will listen and at least acknowledge these problems. It’ll make them think about it and make them think about what it’s like to not be privileged.<\/p>\n

“Women’s empowerment means understanding and embracing our power as women. It means breaking through oppressive barriers to achieve what we truly want.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The expectations set for women looking to make a name for themselves might revolve around an easy come up. I don’t feel like the [come up] process is respected enough and some may not realize that success never happens without serious dedication. Women also don’t exactly have it easy with being taken seriously in the creative realm. Ultimately, I don’t feel like enough is expected of me, which is why I go out of my way to put my all into my craft. Women’s empowerment means understanding and embracing our power as women. It means breaking through oppressive barriers to achieve what we truly want. It also means unlearning some of the small minded standards set up for woman and what’s deemed as appropriate or not.<\/p>\n

Sofia Grey, 16, Dream Job: Modeling<\/strong><\/h4>\n“We’re much more than pretty faces, we’re powerful and intelligent young women who deserve to be acknowledged when speaking out on important topics.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
To put it shortly, the\u00a0expectation is to sit there and look pretty. We can dismantle these stereotypes by speaking out on issues and staying true to ourselves throughout the process of moving up in the public eye. We’re much more than pretty faces, we’re powerful and intelligent young women who deserve to be acknowledged when speaking out on important topics. Important topics to me are sexism and racial injustice. Many important people choose not to speak out about these topics and stay silent. I hold these topics very close to my heart as a women and person of color. I feel it’s important that we discuss these topics until we can resolve the problems. If we don’t speak out it will not change anything or make any progress. All of our voices need to be heard loud and clear.\u00a0[Women with public attention] have the power to make a bigger impact when they speak out on these topics \u2013 they have a bigger platform. They have people who look up to them and will listen to them. If they speak out on these topics people will listen and at least acknowledge these problems. It’ll make them think about it and make them think about what it’s like to not be privileged.<\/p>\n

Julia Smith, 16, Dream Job: Fashion Designer and Herpetologist<\/strong><\/h4>\n“Women’s inner qualities should be focused on rather then their appearance.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
I feel like women are definitely\u00a0expected to be beautiful; sexy in fact. And women who don’t meet those standards, standards originating from men, are put down. Women who are considered to be “beautiful” and “sexy” in the public eye are often recognized solely for those physical characteristics, shaming those who don’t seem to fit. As for women who are engaged in a professional job, they are expected to act more masculine in order to prove their status. Women who are doctors, scientists, biologists, fire fighters, police officers, and even teachers aren’t taken seriously when they embrace their femininity or “act like a girl\/woman.” Women’s inner qualities should be focused on rather then their appearance.<\/p>\n
