femininity is full of rules

This piece is a part of SHE____. which aims to provide a platform to celebrate everyday women. The emphasis is on women who inspire you or you feel have had a significant impact on your life in some way.


Femininity is full of rules. You know them, you have been told many times; Wear a skirt, a girl should have long hair, cross your legs, don’t cross your legs, it’s offensive to not wear a bra, you are not fulfilled until you have a child, pull your skirt down…  The reality is that femininity such an individual concept to define. At some point I got curious about observing women across different countries in the context of various everyday activities. This documentary mini-series presents three edges of femininity. What other ones can you add?
