I'm quite proud to be what is referred to as a 'girl's girl.' Some of my closest friends are the most unique, bad ass, girl bosses around. I have found each of them has different backgrounds, attitudes, and goals--but the one thing they all have in common is I've never heard them put down another girl or qualify themselves as 'being different'.
However, unfortunately, if I had a dollar for every time I’ve been out and overheard the phrase ‘most girls’ being used negatively, I’d have enough money to quit college and move to Marbella. This is why I feel a song like Hailee Steinfeld’s "Most Girls" is long overdue. The song spins a new angle on what it means to be ‘most girls’ and how ridiculous it is to attempt to categorize and negatively stereotype us as a gender. Using music, one of the strongest mediums to deliver a message, "Most Girls" delivers a message of positive unification of girl power that is seriously lacking in today's society.
Everyone has an opinion on how we should look, behave, and speak and they are not afraid to share it. It's bad enough that society influences our perception of ourselves, but what's worse is when the main force is driven by girls, toward girls. Why? We have no reason to judge and every reason to understand and learn from each other. Just like Hailee in her song, I am not embarrassed to aspire to be like most girls, the amazing, confident, girl bosses I have met. Instead of comparing ourselves and trying to compete, we should be embracing our individuality by having the confidence to support one another.
In the end, girls are freaking powerful and we are stronger together!
