developed as a boys. On the other hand, the young girls did everything with all the
strength they could, efficiently, and determined to do it excellently. Finally when the
interviewer asked them if like a girl could be considered as an insult, all of them started
to answer that in some way it has become an insult. As a result, those teenaged girls that at
first where imitating a stereotyped view of themselves started auto evaluating their actions
and finally realized that doing things like a girl shouldnt mean doing things wrong or not
good enough.
Throughout the commercial it is evident how logos appeals to us more directly by
giving us a sense of logic and awakening with elements like the interview, use of normal
people, and their reactions. Lauren Greenfield, filmmaker and director of the commercial
mentions in a description of the commercial on YouTube that, "When the words 'like a girl'
are used to mean something bad, it is profoundly disempowering. I am proud to partner
with Always to shed light on how this simple phrase can have a significant and long-lasting
impact on girls and women. I am excited to be a part of the movement to redefine 'like a
girl' into a positive affirmation." This is why we emphasize that a big part of this insecurity
comes from the perspective society has on them, but also their own.
It is important to emphasize that this brand gives rise to this message thru an
interview of girls, women, men and boys to awaken our principally with the use of logos,
but also our feelings by pathos in their reaction, when they realize that the fact of being a
girl doesnt make you less or weak. The main purpose is to exhort and create consciousness
in the way that we see ourselves by making us forget about stereotypes. It also shows us
that gender is not an obstacle for doing things a certain way. The purpose was effective,
because by the interviewers realizing that like a girl is not a limit or a problem, you can
also analyze the situation. On the other hand, some values that are exposed in this

The advertisement makes us acknowledge that girls shouldnt feel insecure just because
theyre passing thru puberty.
2. What in particular do you want the reviewer to check?
The thesis
_______________________________________________________________________
For the reviewer: Write answers on the back of this sheet if necessary.
1. Does the opening section contain an overview of the topic that orients the reader? Yes Does it
look like the writer has focused the topic narrowly enough to deal with it adequately in 4 pages or
so? Yes
2. Is the thesis clear, adequate, and supported by the data and arguments provided? If not, how
could it be improved? Thesis has not been clearly selected.
3. Is there enough content? Of the eight questions listed on the assignment sheet, are enough of
them answered to make an interesting analysis? What else might be covered to make the analysis a
solid meal for the reader? Yes. Explain the advertisement itself in greater detail.
4. Comment on the organization and coherence of each paragraph and of the draft as a whole.
Are the transitions adequate? Mark on the draft where you see any problems with coherence or
organization.
The draft is mostly complete. The transitions are adequate.
5. Is there a good balance between describing the text and analyzing it? That is, does the essay
just report what is in the text, or does it do that AND discuss how the text makes an argument for its
audience? (Note: it would also be a problem if there are only analytical statements without
supporting details from the site.) How might the balance be improved? Yes it is balanced.
6. Is the essay properly formatted using MLA style? Is there too much quoting or paraphrasing
from the text or other texts that support it?? Mark on the draft any problems you see here,
particularly missing citations. Note: If all of your info is from the site, just be sure you use quotation
marks for their exact words. If you do outside research (e.g. about the companies that are on the
defensive, you will need to say where your information is from. If you dont know how to do a
bibliography, just cite them informally for now.)
Yes
7. As a reader, are you left with any questions about the issue that should be further clarified or
supported? Be as specific as you can.
Morales, Gonzalez 6

is actually like.
8. What do you like best about the essay?
I like the first paragraph that briefly explains the history of womens rights.
