Chapter 654 Girls, come on!
The girls in Dormitory 306 discussed this topic for a long time.
Finally, Gao Yang suggested: "Lao Si, I think you can summarize our discussion this time and post a Weibo to let more netizens participate in the discussion of this topic and let more people pay attention to the dilemma of 'slut shaming' faced by the female group."
Zhang Caifeng was somewhat pessimistic. “But those groups that would suppress women who spread rumors, they won’t listen to this, right?”
Pei Shiqi said, "Why bother with that garbage? We just need to wake up those who want to wake up."
Zhang Caifeng thought about it and nodded, "What you said makes sense."
Su Xing looked at his roommates and said, "Okay, I'll think about it."
A few girls packed up their things and went out together to study.
Su Xing sat in the corner of the study room, sketching a draft while thinking about what his roommates said.
This time, she didn't want to post this topic on Weibo in the form of pictures and texts.
Long passages of obscure text will make people lose interest and patience.
She decided to make an animated video to complete the discussion on this topic.
She thought about it overnight and started making the video.
She drew four cartoon characters, each of which had distinct characteristics, fitting the image of each girl in Dormitory 306.
The background of the four cartoon characters is also a dormitory.
Each cartoon character has a different personality, and they express their views from different angles.
Su Xing also gave each cartoon character some of their habitual interjections and dialect accents to increase the fun.
Although she used some software to change her voice, the context and tone were still easy to distinguish.
Finally, the four cartoon characters concluded:
Girl A: "'Slut shaming' is often intended to weaken women's voice. Dirty rumors often defame women by fabricating false, sex-related content, such as making up a woman's romantic scandal and saying that she has a messy private life. Once such a dirty rumor spreads, it will seriously damage her reputation and image, causing others to have a negative view of her, thereby reducing her credibility and influence in various occasions such as social interactions and the workplace, which naturally weakens her voice."
Girl B: "'Slut shaming' will hinder social progress. The existence of pornographic rumors reflects the gender discrimination and disrespect for women in society. This negative phenomenon is very detrimental to creating a fair and equal social environment. It is hindering women's development opportunities and space in various fields such as society, politics and economy."
Girl C: "'Slut shaming' is also restricting our freedom of expression. When faced with pornographic rumors, women often need to spend a lot of time and energy to refute and clarify them, but in many cases they are unable to defend themselves. They are also likely to be discriminated against and isolated because of the rumors. This also makes us have many concerns when expressing our own ideas and needs. Many people dare not speak out boldly."
Girl D: "'Slut shaming' will reinforce gender stereotypes such as 'male superiority and female inferiority' and 'male dominance and female subservience', making women subordinate in society. I think every woman is unwilling to face such a situation. We should say 'no' to 'slut shaming' and bravely stand up to resist this social phenomenon. We should fight for our legitimate rights and interests and voice through various means, promote changes in social gender concepts, and promote the enhancement of women's voice."
Su Xing also said something to encourage all girls at the end of the video:
“We girls must work hard to make ourselves better and not let rumors and suppression become stumbling blocks in our climb.
Girls can also have a strong curiosity and desire to explore knowledge and skills. They should constantly strive to tap their potential and realize their ideals, such as becoming an outstanding scientist or artist, and shine in the field they love through hard work.
Outstanding women should have more say. From the perspective of personal development, having a say can better protect our own rights and interests. For example, in the workplace, having a say can ensure that we can get more promotion opportunities, reasonable work remuneration and resource allocation.
In the academic field, our research results and opinions can be valued rather than ignored or plagiarized.
From a social perspective, outstanding women represent a certain group. They have more say and can speak for the female group. They can promote the formulation and improvement of policies related to gender equality, make society more inclusive of women's development, and improve the overall social status of women.
We still have a long way to go and a lot of work to do.
But don’t be afraid, we have many sisters working together and moving forward together.”
Su Xing took two days to make this video.
She did not post it on Weibo immediately, but first posted it to the dormitory group of Dormitory 306, letting several roommates take a look and listen to their opinions.
Gao Yang exclaimed, "Su Xing, you are really efficient. You finished it so quickly."
These few days, they all knew that Su Xing was no longer going to make simple comics with texts, but an animated video.
I just didn't expect that she was so fast and finished it in just two days.
Su Xing smiled and said, "I have other work to do, so I will try to speed up the video."
Gao Yang gave Su Xing a thumbs up.
Pei Shiqi said: "Watch it on the computer, enlarge the video, and let's watch it together."
Zhang Caifeng nodded, "Yes, dormitory head, use your computer."
Gao Yang was playing a game. He quit the game upon hearing this, logged into WeChat on his computer, and clicked on the video sent by Su Xing.
After watching the video, Su Xing's three roommates all gave it high praise.
Pei Shiqi said: "Yes, it said everything we wanted to say, and this kind of video is easy for people to watch."
Gao Yang laughed and said, "These little guys are so unique. If our classmates see them, it should be easy to guess who is who."
Pei Shiqi also laughed, "Especially your accent, the dorm head, is the most obvious."
Gao Yang: "For the popularity of the video, I am willing to sacrifice my image."
Zhang Caifeng hesitated for a moment and said, "Are some of the comments in this video a bit too radical? Will it cause Su Xing to be cyberbullied again?"
Gao Yang and Pei Shiqi's smiles faded a little as they looked at Su Xing.
Su Xing said: "Radical? I think it's already very objective. We are just stating some facts. Besides, just because the female group stands up doesn't mean the male group will fall."
