Girls are showing up, shaping popular culture for the better. Their choices tell us about friendship, connection, and how to forge joy in this world.
.” It may sound pretty spectacular to have Taylor Swift perform a private concert for you; in actuality, you’d probably enjoy going to the stadium show with a group of friends a lot more.
The power of girls as consumers and taste-makers isn’t new. Girls fueled the rise of Elvis and the Beatles; girls were the force behind the ’90s and ’00s boy band craze, and the adjacent young blonde female pop star craze—think: Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Jessica Simpson. Girl culture, though, is often mocked and derided, and historically, many “serious” male artists have tried to avoid the stigma of having too many young female fans. Having tons of teenage boy fans is cool.
But there has also been pushback. Yes, men have had a monopoly on power, and have dominated in the social, cultural, political and economic realms, and so it makes sense to force open more space in those realms for women, and to create more space for women to exhibit stereotypically “masculine” behaviors, from taking on leadership roles to wearing pants.
But other feminized qualities, including generosity, kindness, caregiving, humility, gentleness and openness to collaboration? Those could certainly stand to be embraced by more people.
