i don't intend to go into directing but...

and this quote my COM206 textbook

As Nina Jacobson, the head of production for the Walt Disney Company explains "You can't get around the fact that directing movies is still a boy's club."

and in 206 class we learnt a whole lot on media portrayal and the sad fact that women actresses decrease in appeal as they age while men retain theirs

Tis depressing, but a truth of life.
That won't change for quite a while.
Oh well. I believe progress will come with time.
After all it was only after a long while that women could vote :)
perhaps if guys weren't so caught up with the notion of having a girl will long flowly hair, fair skin, sweet voice, demure, etc etc things won't be like that.
since the media is largely controlled by male bigwigs anyways...
but then it'd be wrong to but all the blame on the guys
i guess as girls we just have to be comfortable with who we are regardless of what the ideal girl/women is said to be.
that way we can move a little more towards being truly happy ^-^
