"The press seems to love pitting women against each other"

- Jeanne Tripplehorn

About this Quote

This quote by Jeanne Tripplehorn speaks with the regrettable reality that the media typically represents females as being in competition with each other. This can be seen in the manner in which journalism typically focuses on the physical appearance of female celebs, or the way that they compare the successes of various female figures. This type of protection can be damaging to ladies, as it perpetuates the concept that ladies are in competitors with each other, rather than working together to attain their goals. It likewise strengthens the concept that women are only valued for their physical look, instead of their achievements. This kind of protection can be harming to ladies's self-esteem and can cause feelings of insecurity and competitors. It is very important to recognize the damaging effects of this type of coverage and to work to create a more favorable and helpful environment for women.
