WHAT WE LOVE:

How are we socialized to conform to gender expectations? And what role does media play in this socialization? This is a core Through Women's Eyes topic, so we were delighted to receive this film.


"Nice Girls" compiles footage that helped shape generations of women. Women and men of all ages will want to see this humorous and somewhat chilling look at the influences shaping all our lives.
