What's going on with gender?

Two things yesterday.

Blue Milk has shared her experience of teaching a Montessori class of 5-6 year olds about the messages they receive about gender, and asks them to challenge those messages. Great work!

News With Nipples writes about Sacha Molitorisz’s article about poor female role models, citing music videos, magazines, and the film Bad Teacher. Great work NWN.
