People make me angry when they say that only girls need #PersonalSafety sessions,boys just need to learn to respect girls. Here's my question to you, do you think boys aren't abused or don't deserve safe childhood? Read the petition & you would know change.org/breakthesilence
Our sessions for sex education &/ personal safety #Training need to be gender neutral, boys go through sexual abuse and are silenced. They don't have a language just as girls don't. They need empowerment just as much & even more.
Now the concept of boys learning to respect girls/women, all humans need to learn to respect each other and the environment. Now this knowledge should not be gender biased. If we put girls & boys in diff rooms & teach them separately that's not gonna solve anything.
Teach & empower them together, let them learn to respect each other's boundaries, teach them to stay safe & to say NO when uncomfortable. Establish trust in your relationship with them, love & respect them & be there for them when they need you.
We have to raise them equal for a better safe world. We can't raise them with a bias in education & upbringing and then complain why they don't respect the other gender. So let me teach them together, believe me they all need it.
