Sadly, many women know what it's like to hear a sexist comment directed at them. One artist decided to bring awareness to the sexist language surrounding women on a daily basis by creating a photo series that displays these comments.
She took these comments and displayed them in provocative ways on clothing, women's bodies, or in everyday objects.
"The photos aim to capture modern-day sexism and some of the pressures that women face in society today," Rora said in her Instagram post.
Some of the photos' messages came directly from those Instagram comments.
Even in 2019, women still hear these comments on a regular basis. They've become so normal, people don't even realize they are sexist.
People still joke about women needing to "stay in the kitchen" which undermines their own aspirations and achievements if they are not interested in being a homemaker.
The composition and colors of the photo series are as compelling as the messages they communicate.
Whether it's on the street, at work, or online, sexist language is still harmful to those on the receiving end of these comments.
