Little girls use а word - Word и Excel - помощь в работе с программами

Little girls (and a boy!) dressed as princesses are cursing like sailors to spread messages of feminism and it’s like a gift I didn’t know to ask for. In the video, the girl princesses use the word «fuck» gratuitously to show how backwards it is that society seems more disturbed by little girls saying that word than the fact that these same girls face a 1 in 5 chance of being raped or sexually assaulted in their lifetime, and will make 23 percent less than what a man makes for doing the same work [via FCKH8.

The video also makes a point of calling out how messed up it is to tell a boy to stop «acting like a girl,» thus implying that being a girl is a terrible thing, by showing a boy who is seriously rocking his princess dress.

It’s pretty sad that these little girls seem to have a better grasp of the simplicity of these obviously pressing and disturbing issues, but if that’s what adults who don’t understand the problem need to see in order for them to make radical changes immediately, then this video is doing its job.

Little Girls (исполнитель: Jarboe & Kris Force)

Little girls, this seems to say, 
Never stop upon your way, 
Never [bad word] a stranger-friend; 
No one knows how it will end. 
As you’re pretty so be wise; 
Wolves may lurk in every guise. 
Handsome they may be, and kind,
 [bad word]  and charming — nevermind! 
Now, as then, ‘tis simple [bad word] — 
Sweetest tongue has sharpest tooth!

Девочки, вы должны знать:
Никогда не останавливайтесь в пути,
Никогда не доверяйте незнакомым "друзьям" -
Никто не знает, чем это закончится.
Вы милы, так будьте мудрыми;
Волк может таиться в каждом обличье.
Они могут быть красивы и добры,
Беззаботны и очаровательны - неважно!
Вечна одна простая истина:
Самые сладкие языки скрываются за самыми острыми зубами!

Other learning activities

Full list of words from this list:

impertinent

improperly forward or bold

«I don’t believe any of you suffer as I do,» cried Amy, «for you don’t have to go to school with
impertinent girls, who plague you if you don’t know your lessons, and laugh at your dresses, and label your father if he isn’t rich, and insult you when your nose isn’t nice.»
libel

print slanderous statements against

«If you mean
libel, I’d say so, and not talk about labels, as if papa was a pickle-bottle,» advised Jo, laughing.
reprove

reprimand, scold, or express dissatisfaction with

«Jo does use such slang words!» observed Amy, with a
reproving look at the long figure stretched on the rug.
pervade

spread or diffuse through

It was a comfortable old room, though the carpet was faded and the furniture very plain; for a good picture or two hung on the walls, books filled the recesses, chrysanthemums and Christmas roses bloomed in the windows, and a pleasant atmosphere of home-peace
pervaded it.
soberly

in a serious or subdued manner

Every one thought
soberly for a minute; then Meg announced, as if the idea was suggested by the sight of her own pretty hands, «I shall give her a nice pair of gloves.»
remorse

a feeling of deep regret, usually for some misdeed

Then things went smoothly, for Don Pedro defied the world in a speech of two pages without a single break; Hagar, the witch, chanted an awful incantation over her kettleful of simmering toads, with weird effect; Roderigo rent his chains asunder manfully, and Hugo died in agonies of
remorse and arsenic, with a wild «Ha! ha!»
simper

smile in an insincere, unnatural, or coy way

«Hurry and get done! Don’t stop to quirk your little finger, and
simper over your plate, Amy,» cried Jo, choking in her tea, and dropping her bread, butter side down, on the carpet, in her haste to get at the treat.
renounce

turn away from; give up

«I don’t remember much about it, except that I was afraid of the cellar and the dark entry, and always liked the cake and milk we had up at the top. If I wasn’t too old for such things, I’d rather like to play it over again,» said Amy, who began to talk of
renouncing childish things at the mature age of twelve.
pensive

showing deep sadness

Amy chirped like a cricket, and Jo wandered through the airs at her own sweet will, always coming out at the wrong place with a croak or a quaver that spoiled the most
pensive tune.
pious

having or showing or expressing reverence for a deity

In spite of her small vanities, Margaret had a sweet and
pious nature, which unconsciously influenced her sisters, especially Jo, who loved her very tenderly, and obeyed her because her advice was so gently given.
earnest

devout or heartfelt

As she spoke, Amy showed the handsome flask which replaced the cheap one; and looked so
earnest and humble in her little effort to forget herself that Meg hugged her on the spot, and Jo pronounced her «a trump,» while Beth ran to the window, and picked her finest rose to ornament the stately bottle.
impetuous

characterized by undue haste and lack of thought

They were all unusually hungry, having waited nearly an hour, and for a minute no one spoke; only a minute, for Jo exclaimed
impetuously,—

«I’m so glad you came before we began!»
revel

unrestrained merrymaking

The furniture was used to being turned topsy-turvy, and the big chamber was the scene of many innocent
revels.
trifle

a small amount

There was a good deal of rustling and whispering behind the curtain, a
trifle of lamp smoke, and an occasional giggle from Amy, who was apt to get hysterical in the excitement of the moment.
cabalistic

having a secret or hidden meaning

Out came Meg, with gray horse-hair hanging about her face, a red and black robe, a staff, and
cabalistic signs upon her cloak.
apparition

a ghostly appearing figure

Another chant from Hagar produced another
apparition, not a lovely one, for with a bang an ugly black imp appeared and, having croaked a reply, tossed a dark bottle at Hugo and disappeared with a mocking laugh.
warble

sing or play with trills

Having
warbled his thanks and put the potions in his boots, Hugo departed, and Hagar informed the audience that as he had killed a few of her friends in times past, she had cursed him, and intends to thwart his plans, and be revenged on him.
repose

relax or recline in a comfortable resting position

Then the curtain fell, and the audience
reposed and ate candy while discussing the merits of the play.
retainer

a person working in the service of another

A stout little
retainer came in with chains, and led them away, looking very much frightened, and evidently forgetting the speech he ought to have made.
propriety

correct behavior

He was called before the curtain, and with great
propriety appeared, leading Hagar, whose singing was considered more wonderful than all the rest of the performance put together.
gesticulate

show, express, or direct through movement

They shout and
gesticulate tremendously but cannot agree, and Rodrigo is about to bear away the exhausted Zara, when the timid servant enters with a letter and a bag from Hagar, who has mysteriously disappeared.
tumultuous

characterized by unrest or disorder or insubordination

Tumultuous applause followed, but received an unexpected check; for the cot-bed, on which the «dress-circle» was built, suddenly shut up, and extinguished the enthusiastic audience.
rapturous

feeling great delight

This was a surprise even to the actors, and when they saw the table, they looked at one another in
rapturous amazement.
wistful

showing pensive sadness

He looked so
wistful as he went away, hearing the frolic, and evidently having none of his own.
mortified

made to feel uncomfortable because of shame or wounded pride

«Gloves are more important than anything else; you can’t dance without them, and if you don’t I should be so
mortified.»
blithely

in a joyous, carefree, or unconcerned manner

So Meg went away to «accept with thanks,» look over her dress, and sing
blithely as she did up her one real lace frill, while Jo finished her story, her four apples, and had a game of romps with Scrabble.
petulant

easily irritated or annoyed

«Serves me right for trying to be fine. I wish I’d let my hair alone,» cried Meg
petulantly.
stately

refined or imposing in manner or appearance

Mrs. Gardiner, a
stately old lady, greeted them kindly, and handed them over to the eldest of her six daughters.
jovial

full of or showing high-spirited merriment

Half a dozen
jovial lads were talking about skates in another part of the room, and she longed to go and join them, for skating was one of the joys of her life.
demeanor

the way a person behaves toward other people

Laurie’s bashfulness soon wore off; for Jo’s gentlemanly
demeanor amused and set him at his ease, and Jo was her merry self again, because her dress was forgotten, and nobody lifted their eyebrows at her.
obliging

showing a cheerful willingness to do favors for others

Jo led the way; and, as if used to waiting on ladies, Laurie drew up a little table, brought a second instalment of coffee and ice for Jo, and was so
obliging that even particular Meg pronounced him a «nice boy.»
implore

beg or request earnestly and urgently

Jo laughed, Meg scolded, Beth
implored, and Amy wailed, because she couldn’t remember how much nine times twelve was.
blighted

affected by something that prevents growth or prosperity

You’re a
blighted being, and decidedly cross to-day because you can’t sit in the lap of luxury all the time.
irascible

quickly aroused to anger

This did not suit Jo at all, but she accepted the place since nothing better appeared and, to every one’s surprise, got on remarkably well with her
irascible relative.
affliction

a cause of great suffering and distress

Jo’s ambition was to do something very splendid; what it was she had no idea, as yet, but left it for time to tell her; and, meanwhile, found her greatest
affliction in the fact that she couldn’t read, run, and ride as much as she liked.
reprimand

an act or expression of criticism and censure

She got through her lessons as well as she could, and managed to escape
reprimands by being a model of deportment.
deportment

the way a person behaves toward other people

She got through her lessons as well as she could, and managed to escape reprimands by being a model of
deportment. She was a great favorite with her mates, being good-tempered, and possessing the happy art of pleasing without effort.
plaintive

expressing sorrow

She had a
plaintive way of saying, «When Papa was rich we did so-and-so,» which was very touching, and her long words were considered «perfectly elegant» by the girls.
unbecoming

not in keeping with accepted standards of what is proper

Now Florence’s mamma hadn’t a particle of taste, and Amy suffered deeply at having to wear a red instead of a blue bonnet,
unbecoming gowns, and fussy aprons that did not fit.
frivolous

not serious in content, attitude, or behavior

Aunt woke up and, being more good-natured after her nap, told me to read a bit and show what
frivolous work I preferred to the worthy and instructive Belsham.
