Through watching the film Zootopia, I kept thinking about how realistic what the main character Bunny Hops must go through in order to be a police officer because, in many job positions, it can be extremely challenging for women to make their impact in traditionally male-dominated fields, and making their mark can require more effort. However, even though coming to their realization is stressful, knowing that there are many people that are willing to support and encourage me is motivating me that I can make a difference even in STEM roles where there isn’t as much female representation. The discussion of preventing stereotypes with bunnies in the film is very relevant with HR rules of what can can’t be said about women in professional working environments. However, that being said, given that in the end Bunny Hops proves herself as just as capable- this resonated with me because it shows that in some regards while minorities may have to work even harder at disbanding stereotypes, once they do, they will be respected and treated equally hereafter. In a biological reference, women and other minority groups need that “activation energy” to get across the roadblocks at first doubting their capabilities in order to create an environment that fosters support and success for them during their professional careers. On a societal lens, I think that there needs to more even more education and support for women in these fields, so they don’t have to be overburdened by the amount of “Activation Energy” they would need to get across the hurdles of stereotypes that have been ingrained our society for too long. On a brighter note, many companies have been achieving this with regard to diversity initiatives and programs, however, there is still a long way to ago until true equality is completely fostered in working environments.
