Films

It bugs me so much to the point that I feel like leaving Bollywood films behind forever. Women in Bollywood films are shown as beautiful, weak and pathetic, chained to the bloody sink and unable to raise their voice or have an opinion in almost every scenario. What sort of flipping feminism is this that promotes this pathetic type of woman? I must admit that I realise the more recent films do show women in a more positive light but consider how many Bollywood films glorify the Indian woman, showing her as a true heroine for a reason other than falling in love. Exactly – very few. Hollywood films are more diverse, do not glorify the white beautiful woman with all that deviate being cast in negative roles. Ok, rant over – just needed to get that off my chest – women are not mere sex objects

because in eastern culture, that is how women are supposed to be. if women were portrayed as strong and dominant, it would go against that culture and people probably wouldn’t be able to relate to movies like that, therefore nobody would watch them.
