Dakota Johnson: Sandra Bullock wanted to brunch after abuse
(dpa) – acting icon Iris Berben (74) looks at the social development and today’s image of women with anger and bewilderment. « That makes me angry, » the actress told the « Stern » to a question. « I ask myself: What did our generation actually take to the street for? What did we want to demand? A self -determined image of women, on their own responsibility. »
In her opinion, individuality is « rather punished these days, you will be canceled if you don’t belong ». The focus is too much on a « superficial perfection ». « I always want to call the young people: it is not bad if you also take care of the inside of your head and train the brain, not just the butt. »
For example, she is stunned that many women voted for US President Donald Trump. « How is it possible that Donald Trump was mainly chosen by women with his agenda, with his appearance? » Said Berben. « I am stunned and have the feeling that something is going wrong. » That is why she concerns today’s image of women.
Again and again she hears the sentence: « But they still look good for their age. » This is « meant as a compliment », but comes from an « arrogant attitude ». « He says a lot about how women are seen. And that’s exactly what I am annoyed. I think that is meant positively, but there is a structure behind it, » said Berben. « Visibility of women does not only mean to look nice at 18 or 20 – that doesn’t stop. »
