    SUBJECT: MEAN GIRLS – FROM MOVIES TO REAL LIFE

    DATE: DECEMBER 5, 2010

    Many cliques in schools have been present for a long time. Many categories that
    describe these cliques can be for example: The Popular Kids, Nerds, Emos, Gothic,
    etc. Unfortunately people know, write, and make movies about it but, there has never
    been a solution present. This type of cliques has harmed many people physically and
    emotionally. Many of the people who do not belong to certain categories, do whatever
    they can to fit in the categories that are accepted in the society they live in. Very
    detailed examples of how living in this society can be appreciated more in between
    girls. Girls usually compete with other girls to be the best ones in all subject matters.

    Mean Girls: Movie

    Paramount Pictures has created a movie called Mean Girls which portrays how life
    can be with the different type of cliques. The genre of this movie is comedy, which
    can be easily understood by anyone. In the movie, we can see how girls of a specific
    high school are desperate to be accepted by others. In this movie, we can also see how
    this type of behavior affects everyone that is around it. In conclusion to their behavior,
    all the girls that started to be the main central authorities in this clichés, they start to
    destroy themselves. At the end of the movie, the other girls who tried to imitate that
    behavior these girls had start to notice that following this can lead to destruction.

    Mean Girls: Real Life

    Just as the movie, cliques are present in this society. The following list provides some
    examples were cliques are common in today´s world.

    - Schools

    - Work

    - Clubs

    - Society Status

    Belonging to specific cliques is a very popular in today´s culture. Many people


    especially girls, do whatever is humanly possible to be accepted in today´s society.
    This problem has existed throughout centuries and things have not changed

    1
    throughout time. Up to today, there has not been a solution to stop these cliques from
    spreading and reforming as time goes by.

    . The movie Mean Girls tries to make people over think the whole idea about cliques.
    Although, no matter how people put it either on books, movies, shows etc, cliques
    will always be part of our society. By this example, we can see that equality will
    never be reached in today´s world.
