People! Just say Something!Published 7 months ago in VivaGender and Clothing
When I was little, I used to wear a dress made of the softest hues of blue and green. It splashed around me as I twirled in rich puddles of sunshine, and it sang the purest of songs when my voice cried out to the sky in happiness.

Emily the Period RDPublished 9 months ago in VivaWhy are women valued first for their looks and second for their abilities?
In a world where women have made significant strides towards gender equality, it is disheartening to acknowledge that they are still often valued first for their looks and second for their abilities. It raises the critical question: why does society continue to prioritize physical appearance over the talents, skills, and achievements that women bring to the table? This societal bias not only perpetuates harmful stereotypes but also undermines the progress towards true gender equality. By examining the underlying factors that contribute to this phenomenon, we can shed light on the complex dynamics at play and work towards dismantling the notion that a woman's worth is solely determined by her appearance. Join us as we explore the multifaceted reasons behind this issue and strive for a future where women are valued and celebrated for their abilities above all else.

Introduction I made the title singular just because it sounds better than what the plural would be.

“Culture stereotypes women to fit the myth by flattening the feminine into beauty without intelligence or intelligence without beauty; women are allowed a mind or a body but not both.”
