The Beach Boys song, "California Girls", is famous for its catchy lyrics and bouncy tune. "California Girls" portrays the California dream of the ideal female-one who is happy, pretty and picture perfect. "California Girls" creates a desire from girls that reside in another state, while making girls from California feel prideful in calling this beautiful state home. While overflowing with stereotypes about the different girls in the United States ("the southern girls with the way they talk"), it still puts out the idea that California is the best place to live. When you actually come from California, its funny to think that we are the ideal female, and someone would actually write a song about it. Although the lyrics may not be completely accurate, I dont think any true Californian girls will disagree.
