It's not just women who suffer the negative impacts of gender stereotyping. There are many young boys and men too who fight themselves everyday inorder to keep upto the standards of being a stereotypical "man". Let's tell young boys that it's ok if they can't use their muscles but can use their brains. Let's not teach them to be something that they are not. Let's teach them to confidently be themselves and embrace their individuality. Let's teach them to be good human beings. Let's teach them that big muscles and a handsome face do not make them a hero, rather a good heart does. Let's teach them to be true to themselves, 'cos ultimately that's what brings happiness.
