The study was conducted by Geena Davis' research institute and Plan International, and examined the 56 top-grossing films of 2018 across 20 countries.
Women in movies who have positions of leadership — be that presidents, CEOs or business owners — are too often being portrayed as sex objects, according to a new report.
The report — entitled Rewrite her story: How film and media stereotypes affect the lives and leadership ambitions of girls and young women — also found that women in leadership positions were more likely to be sexually objectified than men, with 15 percent having the camera focused on their body parts in slow motion, compared to four percent of men.
“A woman 007 or superhero in film is welcome. But our research shows they are exceptions and not the rule. The bigger picture is that gender discrimination and harmful stereotypes still dominate on screen. This undermines girls and young women and has a negative impact on their aspirations to leadership in all walks of life.”
