I think that this speech was strongly stated and almost a bias point of view. I absolutely support the beliefs of women equality and power(not Hillary CLinton though!). The speaker made some strong statements and had good reasoning for most of her speech but could have taken a different view on a few of the topics.
For instance, the section she brought up about the males being portrayed as the adventurous type while girls are all stand offish was kind of an iffy and opinionated. I do believe she had the evidence toward this but it wasn’t defending a strong theory. Girls enjoy the fact that they are more inteligent and better decison makers then guys, therefore naturally less adventurous. I believe this to be true, not necessarily in all cases however. I think that there are exceptions to that and also the fact that girls try in some cases to flaunt unintelligence and shy characteristics. I think the adventurous male and shy female theory is more based on actual personality traits and human normalities. That advertisements are just keying in on the facts in that situation. Again, there are exceptions. This was a strongly stated video clip but you have to pick out some of the parts and examen them for yourself to see what strikes your values.

You have a good point here about hom females tend to flaunt unintellegence and shyness. BUT, have you ever tried to dumb yourself down for a female? Most men seem to think it is attractive to seem smarter and more dominant than women do and that is what seems to happen. Shouldn't roles be reversed once in a while?
