In this episode of Little Miss, we’re talking about women in media who were completely wronged—and why we’re still seeing the same patterns play out today.
From the latest season of Paradise and the way Shailene Woodley’s character is written, to Nicole in The Summer I Turned Pretty falling into the "black girlfriend" trope and how Criminal Minds got it wrong with women more than once.. we’re breaking down how female characters are so often misunderstood, villainized, or held to impossible standards.
We also zoom out to the bigger picture, discussing how these patterns reflect real life—especially when it comes to the lack of representation and recognition for women and people of color at the Oscars.
It’s a mix of pop culture, (Lizzo and Penelope Garcia), and rants about how media can still treat women as second class citizens.
