It’s a Girl! Documentary Film
In India, China and many other parts of the world today, girls are killed, aborted and abandoned simply because they are girls. The United Nations estimates as many as 200 million girls are missing in the world today because of this so-called “gendercide”.
This documentary film tells the stories of abandoned and trafficked girls, of women who suffer extreme dowry-related violence, of brave mothers fighting to save their daughters’ lives, and of other mothers who would kill for a son. Global experts and grassroots activists put the stories in context and advocate different paths towards change, while collectively lamenting the lack of any truly effective action against this injustice.Riveting documentary. Recommended to those with a palate for social justice, gender equality and harmony in culture. There are several clips in this documentary where the incidents narrated are highly graphic and unsettling (wherein some mothers killed female offspring) but this is a reality and the only way to tackle and eliminate it is to address it, firstly, and rebel against the status quo that establishes this brutal approach.
As a female from a similar culture, I know how difficult it has been for me and my parents to receive comments on my parents having daughters only; from well-phrased sympathy and pity to suggestions for my father to abandon my mother because she ‘couldn’t bring sons in the house.’ He stayed with her not only because he loved her but because no woman deserves to become a pariah for the child she carries in her womb.
I will have daughters one day, deo volente, and they will know that their mother is more than proud to have them; she’s blessed.
To watch for tomorrow.
People don’t realize things like this are still happening today. Feminism should be every woman’s religion.

You know what? I was scared as fuck the first time I noticed my stretchmarks. I didn’t know what they were. It’s like they didn’t exist in the world. I never saw them in pictures or TV or movies. I’m not gonna say I love mine, but.. I don’t think I’d hate them as much if I saw them often. If they actually seemed like a part of life. I think it’s so unfair. There’s nothing wrong with me, they are so natural yet, I was scared because of how the media portrays women.. It’s pretty crazy. I don’t want girls to be scared of that stuff or boys, boys have them too!
And it’s totally our job to reverse that! The current media today is so against women, that it’s obvious they want you to feel like crap. (To sell you turn around cream that doesn’t turn around shit…)
But really, everything from the Catholic church’s birth control scandal, the personhood act, slut shaming and body shaming - the media wants to fuck us over.
That’s why I think feminism should be at its highest point ever right now. Women are 50%+ of the population, but still we get treated as second class citizens. There is no reason for that, and frankly, I can’t stand for it.
If you feel beautiful, then you are. Beauty has nothing to do with what the media tells you.
