VIDEO: FROM INSULT TO EMPOWERMENT


VIDEO: FROM INSULT TO EMPOWERMENT


Print

While brainstorming a new ad campaign, feminine care product company Always
discovered a study saying that girls’ self-esteem drops twice as much as boys’
during puberty.

And they aren’t just losing their confidence. The research, published by the
American Psychological Association, found that most women never regain their
prepubescent levels of self-esteem.

The team at Always was intrigued by the findings and wanted to know why girls’
self-esteem plummeted. They dug deeper, learning that gender stereotypes greatly
impact girls during puberty. Girls are taught to be nice, submissive, and place
a lot of emphasis on their beauty, unrealistic body ideals, and appearance. At
the same time, boys are taught to lead and be powerful and strong. The
stereotypes are even ingrained into our culture and language, like the negative
connotation of doing something “like a girl.”

It’s Not So Negative
In 2014, Always launched a video ad campaign to change the perception of the
phrase and help girls and women take back their confidence and self-esteem.

The video quickly went viral, becoming the number-two trending video globally,
garnering more than 4.4 billion social media impressions and 90 million views.
It made such an impact that the United Nations recognized the ad for its impact
on female empowerment globally.

The campaign turned an insult into a phrase that symbolizes women’s strength. In
a follow-up survey, Always even discovered that 70 percent of women and 60
percent of men said the video changed their perception of the phrase. At the end
of the day, the message in the video is one of embracing confidence to own your
success, whether you’re thirteen, thirty, or seventy years old.

As one woman from the video says, “Yes, I kick like a girl, swim like a girl,
and I walk like a girl, and I wake up in the morning like a girl. Because I am a
girl. And that is not something that I should be ashamed of. So, I’m going to do
it anyway.”

Watch: For the #LikeAGirl video, Always held a fake casting call asking young
women and men and girls and boys to do things “like a girl” and then asked them
questions about how it made them feel. Check out what happened and see if it
changes your perceptions of what doing things like a girl means.

Since the ad, many organizations have made the “like a girl” phrase into a
rallying cry. There’s Code Like a Girl, Skate Like a Girl, STEM Like a Girl,
Ride Like a Girl, and Vote Like a Girl, among others.



Consider This: What do tennis legend Serena Williams, philanthropist Melinda
French Gates, and First Lady Michelle Obama have in common? You’d be right if
you said they’re all confident, strong women. But the trio have also all
expressed self-doubts, feelings of imposter syndrome, and other struggles.
