Event Originally produced by Media Education Foundation in 2001.
Summary In girls' own voices, What a girl wants presents a glimpse into the powerful - and often destructive - influence commercial culture has on the formation of young girls' identities. A diverse group of eleven girls speaks honestly and openly about the sexual and body-image pressures they encounter as they come of age in a culture that idolized Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, and other pop stars.
