'No More Page 3'.
What is the video about?
The video is about stereotypes that are created like woman
aren't legible or aren't physically able to play sports like men. They also
showed how woman in magazines and newspapers are 'manufactured' and always try
to make themselves look good and care about their image.
"Our volunteers were cutting out pictures for 5 1/2
hours and in that time we found no sportswoman featured in their sports pages.
Not one. We may not have got round to every single edition (the rules of the
experiment were if we cut one photo out of an edition we’d cut every photo out
of that edition, but we’d stop when the wall was full) so perhaps we missed the
one or two images in their extensive coverage of women in the Commonwealth
Games and Wimbledon tennis, but honestly, we were as surprised as The Sun to
find no women in their sports pages."
