Introducing: A Final Paper

In a world where it’s easier to visualize men and women as equal than to actually conceptualize it, we have grown accustomed to accepting sexism in the media. Today’s youth has grown up watching women being objectified through every form of entertainment they follow. As young women are taught to accept these circumstances, young men are taught to practice them. Pop culture has embraced sexism as a commonality; a feature which continues to infect our literature, devour our media, and invade our music. Although it is not only females who face this discrimination, women have battled objectification and stereotypes for most of their existence. Through education, revision, and empowerment, women can defy pop culture’s beliefs and let the public know it does not define us as a species.
