Well this little girl is climbing a tree and most likely going to rip her tights. She loves wear dresses and loves the feeling of looking down from the tops of trees. Little does she know that as she grows up her parents, culture and society…
relates to The Great Depression of the 1920s. Although that is not mentioned in the film, the main focus is poverty and how children got around few things.

motherhood and the women’s domestic sphere. In order to contextualize this change in educational standards, I plan to draw brief examples from the 17th, but mostly the 18th century, regarding what subjects and methods of teaching were to be expected for girls that were allowed to attend school. In addition, should space allow, I’d like to also highlight some key women who helped to further the educational reformation, or more generally how female teachers and schoolmistresses did just that.…
on Tuesday and put them on the clothesline to dry” (Kincaid,1339). The text allows us to see the adult figure teaching the little girl how to become a woman. “This is how you set a table for tea, this is how you set a table for dinner; this is how you set the table for dinner with an important guest; this is how you set a table for breakfast” (Kincaid,1340). This girl, on and on, is being taught “how to set up a table” for different occasions and not once she is given the time to have a space…
the comment “like a girl.” People have heard this comment and immediately think of it as an insult. Always’ commercial uses emotional appeals to empower girls, make “like a girl” a positive statement, and show how great it is to be a girl.

The director asks the girl to run like a girl. The teenager…

made me think about how girls all over the world are constantly trying to be seen as “perfect” and the lengths they go to better themselves. To find out more about how this applies to the real world, I decided to do my research report on this.
