Some people want to box you girls up to be someone you’re not. They do this by ...

• Stereotyping girls as emotional, weak, or needy
• Labeling girls differently than boys, like bossy instead of a leader
• Telling girls they can’t be good at or even do certain things
• Saying girls can’t pursue their dreams because they think girls should be something else
• Objecting to girls being two things at once, like if they think a girl is pretty she can’t also be smart; or if she chooses to have kids, they think she can’t also choose to have a career

Girls, don’t get in the box.
