Gender stereotypes on EIGE

Gender stereotypes are not always obvious. They start to follow us from the our earliest days and continues to influence us when choosing subjects at school and career.

EIGE is focusing on gender equality in the classroom

Gender equality and children: what do they think?

Working together means to build a better world. Gnder equality has nothing to do with genetics. The great problem is how we grow up our children.

This a social experiment made in Italy

Children do not accept gender differences, ut they will if we tell them that gender differences are right.

And this is the same experiment made in Norway

Gender bias starts from the cradle

Gender bias starts from the cradle, let's end with it.

1) As a girl, I'am expected to be your little princess. As a boy, I'am expected to be your hero. 
2) I'm supposed to play with dolls and look pretty. I'm supposed to play sports and act tough. 
3) Crying makes people think I'm hormonal. Crying makes people think I'm weak. 
4) If I spend more time at work than at home, I lack devotion. If I spend more time at home than at work, I lack devotion. 
5) People will question my sexuality if I choose to join the army. People will question my sexuality if I choose to be a nurse. 
6) I'm expected to define myself as a boy or as a girl. 

If gender bias begins with us, it can end with us.

Gender abuse: do not look apart

If you notice that someone is committing an abuse, don't look apart, don't pretend that you just does  anything, help people in need
