Improving gender balance: An action guide for secondary schools

Earnshaw, Heather

Abstract

Young people receive and absorb gender stereotyped messages about what they can and cannot do as a girl or as a boy from a very early age. TV, film and social media all tend to perpetuate the notion of distinct female and male behaviours and attributes. These stereotypes are unhelpful for both boys and girls.
