#LikeAGirl: Empowerment Campaign Response



This is a new campaign ad in which a documentary filmmaker asks a group of participants, while being recorded, to act out what it means to "run like a girl" or "fight like a girl". This group of participants where mixed in age, gender and race, excluding young girls themselves. Every last one of the people shown did a stereotypical display of what a girl would look like doing these things: they acted weak, frail, puny, and ditsy.
