Women have an innate propensity to get themselves noticed, and noticed by their kind. When girls feel free to do what they want, they will usually imitate each other. Each young lady must learn to play certain roles, which involve a set of behaviors. Role-models are persons who have played a given role well enough or long enough to serve as a pattern to reproduce. A girl I likely to imitate the style of walking of her mother, her most important role-model. However, some behaviors are influenced by the actions of others, such a historical figures or other legendary women.

Many children, boys and girls, growing in the last decade, have been captivated by Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon), the young woman from Legally Blonde I and II. Some have gone on to law school because of Elle Woods, others have learned what is acceptable behavior from their spouse, and many have learned to persevere through challenges to earn what they want in life, while some have learned to care more about animals.

Elle Woods is a female role model that children are likely to imitate.  Thus, imitative behavior pays off, however subtle the reinforcement may be. Elle Woods has influenced how many young viewers developed their gender identity. Once children, teens, and young adults form a gender identity, a sense of belonging to a particular gender, they usually find it rewarding to display the values of those they admire.

Role models can affect how people feel about themselves. Elle Woods did not play a stereotypical role, she took control of her life, and both boys and girls seemed to admire her determination and strength. This shows the World that people really do like strong, but nice women, and they set a good example of how ladies should behave and how men should and should not act towards women.

The character Elle Woods presents a healthy psychological young woman, when given the chance was kind to everyone, even people who mistreated her. Elle Woods was very polite and forgiving, but she would not just let people take advantage of her, and she also learned to accept guidance; and learned that not everyone is nice, not everyone has your best interest in mind, but do not let that bring you down or turn you into a callous person.

When young ladies have a beneficial role model, like Elle Woods, they tend to have higher self-esteem, and do better in school and at work. When women are confident, men learn to see them as equals and have more respect for them. Elle Woods appears as a diplomate, a hero, and a nice person. Even after being used and dumped by her boyfriend, made fun of by college students, and being set up by her boss, Elle Woods still manages to meet her goals through ethical means.

Initially, no one took Elle Woods seriously, not even her parents, but a young lawyer, her true friends, her role model, and a college professor saw star quality in Elle Woods, and sacrificed a lot because they believed in her. A self-fulfilling prophecy is a prediction, which is often incorrect, that causes people to behave in ways that would make the prediction come true. It has been proven that when someone expects the best from you, that they will treat you better and this will actually help you perform up to their expectations. However, when everyone dislikes you, is jealous of you, and says and does nothing but mean things to you, it will be harder for you to reach success, but it is still possible. Do not let someone else’s nightmare of you become your reality.

Some people believe that men are smarter than women and the result of that is women underestimating their academic abilities, but in contrast boys are likely to overestimate their abilities—this was seen when Elle Woods boyfriend Warren, and many others were shocked when she got into Harvard. As the movie goes on, it is discovered the Warren’s parents had to help him get into Harvard, while Elle Woods was selected because the admission department thought that she was a great choice and had the grades to succeed in the university.

Many girls actually are interested in science, math, technology, and engineering, but once they get to high school, they may lose interest in these subject because people make them feel that women cannot be pretty and smart. Elle Woods was different, she was both smart and pretty, but the failure of a romantic relationship is what motived her to take life more seriously. She found out that people thought that she was just pretty and she wanted them to notice her beauty and academic beauty, and that is why she went to law school, saved a lot of dogs from being used as test subjects, and got a bill passed in congress.

Elle Woods shows the World that just because she is power, beautiful, and successful, does not mean she is a villain. This film, Legally Blonde, also confronts sexual harassment when a professor tries to get cozy with Ms. Woods in his office, but she rebuffs his advances, which leads to a little conflict and a misunderstanding about her character. Unlike the CBS show Supergirl, many are happy that the Legally Blonde series did not allow any violence toward women in the movies. Supergirl is a good TV show, but it is hard to watch because she gets beat up by mean over and over.

Media depictions can affect the way men and women think, feel, and behave. Girls who see women abused are more likely to be victims of abuse. Men who see women abused are more like to display violent and harassing behavior toward women. People who are harassed or abused are often more likely to be depressed, hopeless, and sometimes suicidal, and they may even feel like they are not in control of their own lives.

So even when it comes to men like Donald Trump, just because you do not like them, does not mean that it is okay to make dolls of him and beat them. Psychologist found that preschool boys and girls are likely to become aggressive after seeing violence and abuse towards inflated Donald Trump dolls, either in real life or on the news.  Elle Woods is a powerful women and both men and women seem to like her, but of course some people were jealous of her success, but what was great about the film is it is not violent.

Harassment, prejudice, and hostility toward women and other demonized groups can lead to a number of physical and mental health problems, and even result in death. People who are beaten, harassed, or slandered often feel alienated, depressed, self-critical, and more like to harm themselves. Getting to know Elle Woods allows people to become more empathetic towards women and men and treat them more kindly in real life.

Because audience members, from children to adults, can be influenced by real people or fictional heroes, many applaud Reese Witherspoon for doing such a great job of playing Elle Woods. Viewers want more influential roles models like Elle Woods because she provides men and women with empowering messages about equality. This can lead to better psychological and physical health in society. Many are praying that there will soon be a Legally Blonde III, the audience wants to know how Elle Woods and doing, does she have a family, and what is her next challenge?

If it rewards you, meets a need, brings some kind of pleasure, then you tend to hang onto it. And because of a pleasure, we do again and again whatever feels good. The greatest mistake you can make in this life is continually fearing you will make one.  Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul; the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.
