Lumea Spune

Blondele se distrează mai mult….zâmbesc mai mult…Încă de la o vârstă fragedă, femeile sunt expuse la o serie de prejudecăți și clișee, mascate ca sfaturi, dar care dictează felul în care ar trebui să fim astfel încât să fim acceptate în societate.

Acum a sosit momentul să arătăm lumii întregi că singurele reguli după care trăim sunt ale noastre. Alătură-te și tu!

#WomenGetTold You won't be taken seriously if you act too silly – If silly means having a personality, I'm happy with that! My smile is what makes me most beautiful. – Shakia, 28

#WomenGetTold Well, you must feel like you're a woman because you're wearing a dress... – I have been open about being intersex, and some people have felt they could then comment on what I should or shouldn’t wear in order to be perceived as a woman. But I don't care. I love trousers and loafers and that has nothing to do with gender. – Susannah, 24

#WomenGetTold Women have to be voluptuous – I used to feel incomplete as a woman because I haven't developed fuller breasts. I totally love my body and don't care about gender expectations anymore. – Victoria

#WomenGetTold Act like a mum – Just because I don't look stereotypically mumsy doesn't mean I'm not a great mum to my kids. I love my style… and so do they. – Misha, 51

#WomenGetTold You should wear something that flatters your figure more – I refuse to wear anything overly girly – I would say my dress is tomboy-ish. I haven’t worn an actual dress in over 15 years. – Leslie

#WomenGetTold Where’s your girlfriend? – Well, my husband wouldn't approve of that! People sometimes express confusion at my sexuality, especially since I have short hair. They are not aware that I have been with my husband for 27 years and have two teenagers. – Misha, 51

#WomenGetTold Your hair's so interesting. Can I touch it? – If I have my natural hair out people often squeeze it like its an alien substance. This makes me very uncomfortable! – Afua, 22

#WomenGetTold You would be so pretty if you lost a few pounds – Love who you are! I am very short and I'm curvy. If you pretend to be someone you're not, people can smell it a mile away. – Lily, 23

#WomenGetTold Gingers have no soul – Society told everyone that having red hair isn’t desirable. I damaged my hair for years with trying to go blonde, but once I decided to embrace my red roots for all their worth, I couldn't be happier. – Sarah, 24

#WomenGetTold Motherhood or career, you can’t have both – "Actually you can. The older I get the more I realize that confidence in yourself can carry you anywhere. And where did I get that confidence? Becoming a mum of six and realizing I didn’t have to live up to anyone else's expectations but mine was refreshing. Beauty comes from within and it’s that feeling that’s carried me to where I am today." – Bella, 52

#WomenGetTold Your look is too young and bohemian for your age – I like the way I dress. To me, there is no such thing as “dressing your age and I embrace that. – Kim, 50

#WomenGetTold You won't get far in this industry – I may be small, but I'm not weak and useless. I've persisted, and now I'm an editor for a major youth media publication. – Emma, 26

#WomenGetTold You would look much prettier if you lost some weight – I believe that real beauty comes from health, kindness and openness, is not about what size you are. – Phoebe, 38

#WomenGetTold You look so…different – "As a child, all I wanted was to be like everyone else, but as an adult I've become so much more interested in being unique. I stopped wearing a wig and started to feel confident about who I was. I'm very recognisable, but these days I feel positive about that." – Christa, 42

#WomenGetTold Why don't you act more like a woman? – I may be a female bouncer, but that doesn't make me any less of a woman. I use my femininity and confidence to my advantage. – Kaz, 48

#WomenGetTold Piercings are unprofessional – I've got loads of piercings.. and I'm also a successful woman, they're not related! I love how I look, and that I have my own thing. – Eka, 33

#WomenGetTold Calm down…is it that time of the month? – Whether I'm quiet and reflective, or assertive and have something to say, has nothing to do with the fact that I'm a woman. – Shakia, 28

#WomenGetTold Where are you really from? – I am half Chinese and often get exoticised. As a child I wanted to be blonde like my Mom, but eventually I realised there was more than the blue-eyed, blonde-haired western model for beauty. – Victoria

#WomenGetTold With your baby-face, you won't be taken seriously – If being petite means you don't command a presence, you have to set things straight yourself. – Monica
