Ladiesss

Women in animation, not the orginization but i mean in general is a lacking feature, as is with many things in this world. It looks as if men rule in most areas right? A lot of women blame men oppresion and my reaction to that is "pansy moron." Seriously, women live longer, and there are more women in the world so saying that we're oppressed is simply stupid. Although I do believe a women's most important role is to be a wife or mother (if marriage is where God leads her) I also believe that God can use women in a lot of areas just as much as men. Now I don't really think there should be an increase of women in construction or w/e cause men and women are different but equal. Sometimes people think equal means women should do men work and men should do women work but that just gets stressful and confusing but I'm getting off topic, I wanted to go on women roles in entertainment and the media.
 It's rare to have many women in animation which is why seeing so many girls in it here is pretty exciting to me but if you watch tv try counting how many females take the lead role. You'll have some fingers left over. I found some research on this that looked at 40 different movies ranging from G to R and went from 1999 to 2006, and 1,034 television shows for kids, including 534 hours of programming between June 12 and August 18, 2005. The results were not entirely surprising, but they were still eye-opening. Male characters outnumbered female characters in all genres by as much as 2:1, not only in lead speaking roles, but even in crowd scenes.
Not only that but the girls and women portrayed were "hypersexualized" for the most part and fell into three categories:
The Daydreamer
The Derailed
And The Daredevils
All which seem to encounter some sort of romantic love of some kind. Seriously though are we girls that shallow? I know movies can't fully go into the full depths of an individual person but I would like to see something different from female roles in film and television.

Of course to be fair, there are plenty of male stereotypes in films of course that can get pretty annoying. (Like the fact that romantic comedies lie to all men everywhere, cause in real life, "no" does NOT mean "try harder and I'll see that you love me and I'll eventually fall for you")
But there are so many different people why are we so drawn to these specific characteristics?

So I've been looking at personality chacteristics of female roles, even more annoying is the physical ones. Though I feel like that's so very obvious that I don't have to dive too far into it.
Long rant short: Girls have unrealistic ideals for their bodies. Boobs with waists that small is only possible by surgery, and we have a very unrealistic idea of hair.
Real men have unrealistic hair too and chiseled bodies.

I think we need to try a little harder and get some better, relateable and unique characters out there, especially on the female side of things. We have a lot of inspiration to choose from if we weren't so lazy.
