    In the acclaimed 2001 film, Legally Blonde, the main character, Elle Woods, is a fantastic feminine icon for females. The film represents the struggle of women to prove their ability. Remarkably, Elle never succumbs to those who so strongly see her as being stupid. While others put down her abilities and intelligence, Elle hardly ever doubts herself. She moves through the world with pure confidence. As Callahan, a law professor at Harvard who later selects Elle Woods for his internship quips, “it’s

    characteristics. We observe a person or object and if it shares similar qualities from another object we are familiar with, then we assume that the object is a part of that category. I used Legally Blonde because it is a great example of how Elle (Reese Witherspoon) was underestimated. Elle is a blonde sorority girl, from California, and has a lot of money. She always has the best clothes, friends, and dates. Based upon, her physical attributes, people categorize her as being unintelligent, and unable
