The Gender Agenda: A First-Hand Account of How Girls and Boys Are Treated Differently
Ros Ball, James Millar
From language & clothes, to toys & the media, society inflicts unwritten rules on each gender from birth. Aiming to make people aware of the way gender is constructed & constantly reinforced, this diary chronicles the differences two parents noticed while raising their son & daughter.
Adapted from tweets & blogs the couple kept throughout parenthood, this collection shows how culture, family & even the authors themselves are part of the 'gender police' that can influence a child's identity, & offers ideas for how we can work together to challenge the gender stereotypes that are ingrained in our society.
