Answer:
1.) Don’t frame gender equality as only a women’s issue.
It’s everyone’s issue. You can’t fix gender inequalities without getting everyone to understand that gender roles shape the ways in which both women and men think, live their lives, and act towards each other.
2.)Don’t reinforce gender stereotypes.
There are no traits, behaviours or preferences that are common to all women, nor are there any that all men share. These are myths perpetuated through gender stereotypes, some of which we don’t even recognise as problematic. For example, while it may seem like a compliment to say women are more cooperative and men are more competitive, these are still stereotypes.
3.Focus on facts.
Because gender shapes our lives and identities in so many ways, most of us have strong opinions about gender roles and gender relations. We have to be careful not to infer societal trends based only on our personal experience or anecdotes. Instead, we should focus on what the facts and statistics tell us and consult with experts.
