Join Always in our epic battle to keep girls’ confidence high during puberty and beyond. Using #LikeAGirl as an insult is a hard knock against any adolescent girl. And since the rest of puberty’s really no picnic either, it’s easy to see what a huge impact it can have on a girl’s self-confidence.
Making a start by showing them that doing things #LikeAGirl is an awesome thing!
“In my work as a documentarian, I have witnessed the confidence crisis among girls and the negative impact of stereotypes first-hand,” said Lauren Greenfield, filmmaker and director of the #LikeAGirl video. “When the words ‘like a girl’ are used to mean something bad, it is profoundly disempowering. I am proud to partner with Always to shed light on how this simple phrase can have a significant and long-lasting impact on girls and women. I am excited to be a part of the movement to redefine ‘like a girl’ into a positive affirmation.”
So tell us… what do YOU do #LikeAGirl?
For the past 30 years, Always has been empowering girls globally, bringing puberty education to millions of adolescent girls.

Run or throw or whatever , like a girl isn't an insult or a compliment only sexists would think of it as an insult and only feminazis would think of it as a compliment
Not all girls are like that RUN FEMINAZIS!!!
Everybody before they are born are girls
Look at the way the girls ran and threw when they were told to do it properly though, it was so similar to how they first did it l0l
Thanks for the insult to guys. Go buy some baby dolls, because you are just whining about being a girl like it's nobody's business
0:48 initiate cringe mode.
SOFTBALL. WNBA. WOMEN's DIVISION MMA.
I wonder why these exist.
Is it bad that I wanted to punch that last boy to throw and just open his hand I was so mad ugh he's an idiot
I'm interested to know if there is something similar for the male counterpart?
Hear numerous times "hit, run, throw like a girl" but toward a boy
When people say "you throw like a girl or whatever" i say thanks! i must be the best then!!
2:47 lol that was a pretty bad swing.
mas as meninas são forte rapidas agilidade
The first few people were actually true.
I LOVE THIS COMMERCIAL❤️❤️❤️ girls put this your Instagram website space!
I'm a girl and proud to do things like a girl :)
I think you've got this totally mixed up. Since it's a pretty outdated phrase, I bet it's just that the older girls know what it means and the younger ones don't. This only shows that we HAVE improved in our society, as the newer generation knows that this is a ridiculous statement.
beautiful :')
Im not convinced that some of the young girls wouldn't have done the stereotypical run, throw or fight actions. They're not oblivious to the stereotype even if it does not represent them.
It's not fair when people say things like this. I am a black belt at the age of 10
its sad that the girls ran the exact way the men /older females said a girl runs
I remember when I was in soccer (I was like, seven, I'm thirteen now) and me and the only other girl were talking after we had done a warm up and we had to go to the coach, we were talking about the next game thats was coming up in a few weeks and we were really excited, the coach then yelled at us saying "Girls stop talking about dolls and get over here" I didn't think anything of it back then, but now I do, I bet if we were two boys we would've just been told to hurry up and get over here.
Well this is pointless!
Well this is pointless!
somebody said that to me and I said so that means I was doing it right
Well … On average girls are weaker than men so its technically true
BRAVO! BRAVO! BRAVO!
This is manipulation. They put these people in front of camera, where they expect to perform some sketches… People immediately go in to their playful and theatrical mod. Then they ask them to do "something like a girl", which they understand given the circumstances in the "mockery" sense of "like a girl". So they put them in to this situation, when the actors think they are doing what creators want them to. It is easy manipulation, it is just matter of context you put the people in. And after these poor actors do what they think the creators want them to do, they are humiliated. If the circumstances would be different, for example the actors would be seated on the chair and asked "do you think that girls can run or throw punch the same way as boys do"? Most of the people would think about it in very different way and they would give them very different answers. They would start to pull out stories of girls beating guys, of female athletes they see in tv and so on…
You look like a girl
Girls aren't the only people who lose their confidence during puberty.
