Today I watched Miss Representation for the first time. Then I made my mother watch it.

I have been hearing people talking about the film for months now and I finally got around to renting it and watching it. Now that I’ve seen it, I want to show it to everyone I know.

The film makes it so clear with so many examples: Female politicians are treated differently and sometimes horribly. I was shocked by some of the clips the filmmaker found of men in the media talking about females.

You can watch the trailer here.
