Women: Objects rather than Educated Girls

This past week, I encountered myself watching a video called MissRepresentation where women are seen as inferior to men and are seen as objects more than people. In our current society, lots of women portray themselves as being beautiful and showing off their body rather than choosing to be educated and smart because men are the most likely candidates to have better jobs. Because men only expect women to act and dress in a certain fashion, it causes women to be more insecure about themselves that make them want to do what others want them to look like rather than wearing and looking like what they want. There are always men and jerks who tease women for being overweight and tell them to lose a few pounds, so they could look like a regular and up-scaled women in society. Since the expectations for women are so high, this causes them to become depressed because some are unable to look like all the reality stars and superstars like Ariana Grande, The Kardashian's, etc. Also no matter hard they try, they will never be able to meet the standards of these stars that makes them feel unwanted and imperfect.
Since men blow off the women and make them feel unwanted because they aren't gorgeous, women feel inferior and frightened of the power that men have over their lives. This is what makes women only focus on their appearance rather than politics or school. Some women see men as the people who hold the family together financially, so the women don't try to achieve and surpass their husband that makes them weaker. Women need to understand that they need to do what they want and how they want to present themselves to the world or else they will never be able to get out of the shell of being inferior to men. Also, men need to appreciate women and not tease and mess with a women's feelings. If men are able to work together with women and not look at a women's image, but see her view on the world, then we would be able to have a balanced world where opposite genders could attract and create a peaceful world together.
