I'm Not Just a Girl

Abstract

This research explores the impact of social media trends like "I'm just a girl" on perpetuating gender stereotypes. While these trends often originate as humorous or relatable content, they may inadvertently reinforce outdated and harmful notions of femininity. By examining the cultural and psychological implications of such trends, this study highlights how humor can mask deeper issues of misogyny and sexism in digital spaces. The findings underscore the importance of critically engaging with social media narratives to promote gender equality and empower individuals to challenge stereotypes.
