The trailer depicts an all-female baseball team set during World War two when most of the men were off at war and women were entering the workforce. It focuses on women's empowerment and feminism, but in a way that very clearly lacks intersectionality. All the women who are depicted as strong and independent in the movie against the backdrop of a sexist society are white women. While conceptually empowering and groundbreaking for women, it does fail to include different types of women who aren't cis and white. It is very representative of the first and second waves of feminism, which were focused on women's rights and freedoms, but were exclusionary of minority women.

Official Trailer: A League of Their Own (1992)

# data[].attributes.body
The trailer is about the drag queens in New York in the 80s. It displays black queer culture through the outfits, makeup, dances, slang, etc. Some of the drag queens are trans, and trans identity is explored in relation to how society views trans people. It overall delves into drag culture and shows the people using drag as performance art and to express themselves. It focuses on individuals and also the community as a whole that uplift each other in the less progressive time where society was filled with more hatred towards trans, queer, and black people. There is a lot to be seen in the trailer through an intersectional lens as some of the people have identities being trans, black, and queer which impact the way they are treated and how they move through the world with those multiple facets of their identity.

The graph from 2021 depicts how, in our patriarchal society, men are valued highly and receive more money and opportunities. Despite female athletes having won more medals, their average net worth is significantly less. This showcases the inequalities between men and women when it comes specifically to sports and pay. It's important to acknowledge these differences and why they are unfair.

The statistics from 2023 demonstrate misogynoir and intersectionality. Out of the various race and gender groups, the group with the highest unfair treatment in healthcare was black women. This unfair treatment showcases the way that a combination of marginalized identities (black and woman) creates barriers. Historically, black women have been highly discriminated against and mistreated, with these stats further backing that fact. In any setting, but healthcare specifically, this problem is unacceptable and is important to address and work to fix.

The trailer is for a documentary that gives a personal look into the life of Harper after she transitioned later in life and her friendship with Will, who knew her when she was not out. It explores their friendship post-transition and follows them as they go cross-country through some more conservative states. Will asks questions about being trans, and the overall trailer explores trans identity and being trans in the face of ignorance. It opens up conversations for cisgender and transgender people and sets a precedent that cis people and cis straight men in specific can and should be accepting of trans people. Trans people face a lot of discrimination in the US with regard to laws, polices, healthcare, and society in general. This documentary provides a look into real people's lives and shows that trans people are people and should be cared about and treated with the same respect as cis gender people.

In the trailer for the movie, there are four sisters living in 1800s America. There are themes of love, money, marriage, womanhood, etc. Several characters talk about marriage and how, as a woman, you need to marry a rich man in order to have a good life. Jo, one of the sisters, is independent and wants to be a writer and support herself without a husband. The societal pressures from her family and community are putting on the expectations that women need to be married, even when it comes to the character in the book she's writing. During this time period, women were not viewed as equal to men, and they had rigid gender roles to fill as wives and mothers. Her other sisters do want to marry and fulfill the roles set for them. They aren't painted in a weak or bad light for wanting marriage and kids, all the sisters are simply their own beings that end up on different paths. It aims to convey that women are fully realized people with wants and ambitions, and shows how they move through a world that is more catered to men to succeed and achieve their ambitions. Jo is the sister who very outwardly defies society and wants to be free of the restraints that society has for women and especially during that time period when it was harder for women to make a living and when they couldn't even vote. Overall conveys gender roles, patriarchy, and the inequalities between men and women.

The trailer shows drag queens going to conservative places, putting on shows, and connecting with the queer community in the places. A lot of the places are very hateful towards the LGBTQ+ community, and some of the states have drag bans. The drag queens perform and use the drag and the show to help other queer people feel uplifted and loved amid the hatred people. The gender expression of the drag challenges traditional gender stereotypes and provides a safe place for people who are queer or trans to feel seen.

This razor ad challenges the gender norms that are generally depicted in advertisements. Typically, ads can be very gendered. Products targeted towards women are very different than those to men. The female products might be pink or other "feminine" colors and might just overall look different. This ad shows a seemingly male hand holding the same razor as a seemingly female hand. The accompanying writing says that "your razor doesn't need a gender". This is a different take on products and advertising and serves to challenge the notion that there needs to be separate gendered looks to products. It aims to be more gender neutral and inclusive, which is refreshing and progressive.

This image shows a protest for women's rights. One of the posters in the picture says, "Girls just wanna have FUNdamental rights!" This is a play on words from the song "girls just wanna have fun." In using this lighthearted song to advocate for women's rights, it's very impactful. This image shows many women gathering together fighting for their rights and using posters to convey their messages.

This graph displays that on a state level, women are disproportionately represented as state legislators and governors. The percentage of women governors is below 10%, and the percentage of women state legislators is only about 1/4 compared to men. This is significant because women living in the states have less representation in making laws and policies that affect them and may restrict them.

This graph shows the percentages of women in different areas of the United States Government from 1965 to 2017. While the number of women has grown, it is worth noting that there is not equal representation of men and women in our government. Women have far fewer positions of power compared to men. This is important because we live in a patriarchal society where women face unequal opportunities and have less power than men.

One of the inequalities that women face is the wage gap between women and men. The graph shows the lifetime losses of money that women in different states have over 40-year careers. The amount of money is very significant and goes to show that men in the United States have more money and more power. This is why the feminist movement is so important because it fights for equality between men and women, including equal wages.

The information provided by the infographic with statistics showcases the reality that 1 in 4 women has experienced violence from a partner by mid-20s. This huge issue affects women and their safety. 86% of countries do not recognize the risks and include services in their policies. Women are more likely to be the victims of this violence, and the majority of government leaders are men. The majority of these countries and the majority of men in charge of them have not provided policies to help with the issue that women face. This is a direct effect of the inequalities against women.

In the video, the speaker explains the concept of intersectionality and the purpose that it serves. It recognizes the multiple facets of identity that people have. It can work to impact the laws to help people's discrimination be better recognized by the legal system.

This graph shows a number of different minority groups and the percentage of them that were treated disrespectfully by healthcare providers or staff. The group with the highest reporting was transgender people with 60.3%. In regard especially to healthcare, there have been many restrictions in transgender healthcare, and there is the added layer of discrimination and mistreatment.

# data[].attributes.body
As the graph shows, from 2017-2023, the number of bills targeting transgender healthcare in general and for transgender youth has risen significantly. Trans people already face discrimination, but they also have faced increasing restrictions on gender-affirming healthcare. This matters because trans people should be able to access in some cases life life-saving care. There is an increasing anti-trans agenda in parts of society and the government which is negatively affected this group of people.

# data[].attributes.body
The bar graph depicts the rise from 0 in 2021 to 25 states in 2024 that have enacted laws to limit youth access to gender affirming care. Anti-trans legislation is on the rise and directly affecting trans youth. Suicide attempts by transgender youth have gone up 72% as more anti-trans laws have been put into place. This issue is very important because being trans in our society is already hard, but the barriers that anti-trans legislation is causing are making it even more difficult and, in some cases, fatal.

The image shows the gender spectrum. The far left in light pink is female, and the far right in light blue is male. The figures in between show that not everyone's gender falls neatly into either of the extremes. The gender spectrum is a spectrum for a reason because they are a wide variety of positions that someone could fall into. Our society generally tries to put people into a box on either the far left or far right side of the spectrum. However, a lot of people fall somewhere in between, whether that be non-binary, gender fluid, intersex, etc.

The image depicts a girl playing with a truck and a boy playing with a doll. Through gender socialization and gender stereotypes, kids are taught about gender and are pushed into the "box" that matches their sex. Traditionally, girls would be socialized to play with a doll because it is a "girl toy." The boy would be socialized to play with the truck because it's a "boy toy." The image, however, shows that girls and boys can, do, and want to play with toys outside of their "box." The gender binary is restrictive and this image breaks those restraints and challenges the gender binary.

The image shows a man and a woman walking through what I can infer is the workplace because they are in suits holding briefcases. The woman is holding her own paint roller and painting her path forward. The man is walking on a path that is being painted for him by a big, manly hand from the sky. The deeper meaning behind that is that our society is set up as a patriarchy. Men hold the majority of power and many facets of society, such as the workforce, as systems that are set up to cater to men. The hand, or society, has painted the path for men to walk on and succeed. The women, however, have had to fight for their rights and pave their own way in the workplace and in society. Women have to work harder for the same opportunities that men often have easier access to.

This photo of a feminist protest shows a poster that reads "intersectional feminism is the only kind." Throughout the decades, there have been different waves of feminism. The first few, however, failed to include minority women and only focused on white women's rights. The poster is right in saying that intersectional feminism is the only kind because saying that women should be equal to men should include women of color, trans women, queer women, women with disabilities, etc. It's crucial for feminism to be intersectional because minority women have been the backbone of the progress and change for decades, and have also been particularly discriminated against for both being women and being a minority.

This image shows a masculine-presenting person with an outfit that is gender-bending. One half of the outfit is a black striped suit. The other half is a flowy pink dress. Besides the main split of the outfit, there is also a mix of feminine and masculine things. The side with the dress has a masculine black boot, a hairy leg, facial hair, and arm tattoos. The side with the suit has a feminine heel, a small sparkly purse, makeup, and a sparkly dangly earring. The combination of feminine and masculine items and ways of presenting oneself represents gender fluidity and expression. It is a statement for a man to wear a mix of feminine and masculine clothes and accessories that breaks traditional gender norms and forms of expression.

This image takes inspiration from the famous poster from World War Two, showing a white woman flexing her arm in a worker's uniform with the words "We can do it!" This newer image included women of different races, ethnicities, body types, etc. and places them in the same outfit and position. In this way it includes many different types of women than just the one originally depicted. The original poster's message was to encourage women to join the workforce to help with war efforts in factories while the men were off at war. The workplaces and society highly favored and pandered towards white women, though. The new version is more inclusive of all types of women and serves to uplift and empower them.

The image contrasts an old sexist ad for ketchup with a modern parody of it. The original ad shows a bottle of ketchup with a woman delicately going to open it with a shocked look on her face. The accompanying writing says, "You mean a woman can open it?" This ad reinforces sexist ideas that women are weak and delicate. It's meant to be a shock that a woman could open the bottle. The modern version is a man doing the same pose with the writing saying, "You mean a man can open it?" It is meant to be satirical and highlight the absurdity of implying that something as simple as opening a bottle is dependent on being a certain gender.

This ad shows two computers. One is for boys and one is for girls. The boy's laptop has 50 functions, is more expensive, and is the neutral color of silver. The girl's laptop only has 25 functions, is less expensive, and is the color pink. The very obvious differences are telling about how society values boys vs. girls and what stereotypes there are. In our society men are given more opportunities and valued higher. They boys laptop has more functions so the boys can do more things on. The girls laptops can't do as much, and society doesn't want girls do be able to do as much as boys. The colors also further the gender boxes that girls like pink and boys like darker, more "masculine" colors. The boy's laptop is worth more, and to society boys are worth more as well. This is a very obvious display of sexism and the way that items and toys are gendered to socialize children about what being a certain gender means for the way you live and act.

This video describes a matriarchal society that lives in China. Research was done on their health compared to women living in the mainstream Chinese patriarchy. The women in the matriarchal society hold the control and autonomy saw that they were half as likely to have chronic inflammation and have high blood pressure. This is telling about the effects that patriarchy can have on women who do not have the same power and rights as men. They suffer not only socially, economically, but also as this proves, health-wise.

In this video, the speaker, Alicia, recounts her story of being intersex. When she was an infant, the doctors removed her internal testes. This caused health complications that required her to take hormones for the rest of her life. If the doctors had just let her exist in the body she was born with, she would have been fine, and her body would have converted the testosterone into estrogen. This is an issue all too common for intersex people. Doctors or parents think that because the child was born with both male and female biological aspects, they need to be fixed to one gender. This is tied to society's concepts of gender and the gender binary. People feel comfortable and safe when they can put people into a box of man or woman. Something outside of the binary scares people. This is important because intersex people are completely normal and natural. It's important to destigmatize them to prevent further unnecessary surgeries and procedures being done on children to assign them one gender or another.

In this video, several boys and girls are asked to answer what it means to be a boy and what the difference between girls and boys is. It is interesting to see the variety of answers that the kids give. Some site body parts and hormones as the difference, some say that it's about personality traits like strength, or stereotypes like not crying. A few even say that anyone can be a boy if they want to. These responses say a lot about gender socialization and the different things that these kids have been taught about each gender and the stereotypes about boys and girls.

The video shows an experiment where a toddler girl and a boy are dressed in the opposite gender's clothes. Then, female and male volunteers come into a room with different toys targeted at boys and girls. The volunteers play with the "girl" toys when with the boy dressed as a girl and vice versa, with the girl dressed as a boy. The volunteers, after being told the truth, expressed their surprise and disappointment at themselves for perpetuating traditional gender socialization and stereotypes onto the kids. This goes to show just how much gender norms are ingrained into us, subconscious or not. The way we interact with and treat even young kids is different based on the gender we perceive them to be.

This video shows a class being asked to draw a person who is in a male-dominated field (firefighter, surgeon, and fighter pilot). The vast majority of the pictures of people were drawn as men. Three people, each belonging to those fields, then came out to meet the kids. All three of them were women. This is very powerful because it shows just how impactful stereotypes can be. The girls and boys had been socialized by their parents, the media, the government, etc., to stereotype certain jobs and capabilities as male. It flipped the stereotype on its head and showed that women are in those fields as well and are also capable of doing those jobs. It provided real-life representation to the little girls in the classroom that they too can do that, and showed the little boys that they aren't any better than women and that women can do the same things they can.
