There were a few that caught my attention, such as the story about anchorwomen Jennifer Livingston who responded to the comments that she was 'too fat' to be an anchorwomen. I remember when the story was in the news and was so angered by it. Its so unfortunate and sad that were are so inundated by labels and projecting this image of what it means to be feminine. Livingston who isn't considered to fit the mold of a typical anchorwomen responded beautifully to the comments and kept her head high. Don't we live in a society where our differences should unite us, isn't that what makes each and every person unique? As the new year approaches, why do we still put women down because of there size and not focus on their intelligence?
I applaud Livingston her for her comments, and even though this was one of the top sexist moments of 2012, it was a moment where a women overcame sexism and stood up for herself.
