Producer Creates Twitter Feed Highlighting Sexism in Scripts

A recent study revealed that women were protagonists in just 13% of movies created by men in 2015. It's a pretty depressing statistic made worse when you consider that the representation of these women is often sexist—a fact producer Ross Putman brought to the internet's attention with his new Twitter account. "These are intros for female leads in actual scripts I read," he explains in his bio. "Names changed to JANE, otherwise verbatim."

Prepare to be bummed:

A gorgeous woman, JANE, 23, is a little tipsy, dancing naked on her big bed, as adorable as she is sexy. *BONUS PTS FOR BEING THE 1ST LINEFebruary 10, 2016

His wife JANE is making dinner and watching CNN on a small TV. She was model pretty once, but living an actual life has taken its toll.February 10, 2016

JANE (late 20s) sits hunched over a microscope. She’s attractive, but too much of a professional to care about her appearance.February 10, 2016

Because god forbid professional women care about their appearance, right? *Fumes internally*

JANE pours her gorgeous figure into a tight dress, slips into her stiletto-heeled fuck-me shoes, and checks herself in the dresser mirror.February 10, 2016

JANE, with lengthy blonde hair, enters. Attractive in an effortless way, she carries an alluring and yet forward charm behind a bold smile.February 11, 2016

JANE, 28, athletic but sexy. A natural beauty. Most days she wears jeans, and she makes them look good.February 10, 2016

It's unclear which films these charming intros were pulled from, but if this is an accurate sampling of what men in Hollywood have to offer, we need more women behind the scenes immediately.
