(51,550 posts)1. The video's stats on how women are portrayed in film bear repeating:
Only 30.8% of speaking characters are women;
28.8% of women wore sexually revealing clothes, as opposed to 7% of men;
26.2% of women actors get partially naked, while 9.4% of men do;
10.7% of films feature a balanced cast where half of characters are female.
