Girls being seen as overly aggressive in movies.


I have to admit on of my favorite movies is Mean Girls.  It is a guilty pleasure of mine.  I watch it at least once a month.  Even though it is one of my favorite movies I can see how it portrays girls as being overly aggressive.  The girls in the movie are very mean when it comes to trying to rise to the top of the social circle of their school.  They create rumors say catty remarks and sometimes even get physical with each other.  This movie may be a little bit of a stretch of how girls act in real life, but from my personal experiences girls are mean to each other.  They are in constant competition with each other.  They are trying to always make themselves better than one another.  They spend too much money of clothes trying to have the best; they are mean to each other.  A personal experience of mine was that I was a mean girl.  I was always trying to put other people down and making other’s feel horrible about themselves.  Now that I am older I have realized that what I did was wrong and now I am constantly trying to make up for being mean in the past. Now I try to be a nice person to everyone.
