ADVICE | IN THE NEWS

Hmm... do you think girls and boys are equal?

 
Feminism. Nowadays, a lot of people think it’s unnecessary, that one of its main goals—gender equality—has been accomplished, so what’s the point of dragging out that tired movement again? And yet…

 

Women still earn less than men do for equal work

 

Only 30 percent of girls in the world are enrolled in secondary schools. In the next two years, women will make up nearly two-thirds of the world’s illiterate adult population.

 

Women hold less than 16 percent of top leadership positions in Fortune 500 countries and about 20 percent of the seats in the U.S. Congress

 

1 in 5 high school girls has been abused by a date and more than half of all rapes of women happen to girls younger than 18

 

Something about that doesn’t seem quite equal to us. Enter the International Day of the Girl.
 

Today, Oct. 11, has been established by the United Nations to support the a resolution made last year: “To help galvanize worldwide enthusiasm for goals to better girls’ lives providing an opportunity for them to show leadership and reach their full potential.”

 

Three cheers for that!

 

Are you ready to join the movement? Leave us a comment telling us why YOU think the International Day of the Girl is a great idea, and what you’re going to do to make sure that you, your friends and all the girls who come after you have equal opportunities to real the world in the future.

Okay, so I think I like this guy. I don't think he likes me because I usually don't get asked out, but I just need some advice. One day, him and/or this other boy threw two halves of a broken pencil at me. Since I didn't know who did it, I threw one half to each boy. The guy I think I like threw it back, and we continued throwing it at each other, and we were both laughing. He also has poked me with his pencil a few times, but never to acually injure me, and did it to me more than anyone else in our group. We were talking one day and I brought something up, and he said that I was "so mean" but looked back at me smiling. When we talk, it's more about our lives and teasing, but when he's with other girls, he jokes around a bit more. I don't think he likes me, I'm just curious to hear your view in this. Sorry this is so long!

Hey girl,

It sounds like those guys are flirting with you, but there are better ways to show affection than by throwing things at you and poking you, because those things aren't very kind, and neither is teasing. If he's doing that to other girls, too, he might just have a flirty nature. But if you want to get to know him more as friends to see if he likes you, there's no harm in that, so try starting a conversation one-on-one without your friends--if other people aren't watching, he might not tease you as much and you might be able to have a better conversation.

i'm going to probably treat my friends to a spa day, or go on an adventure, nothing special. AND set high goals for ourselves so we make them and make a mark on the world in our future beyond high school.BOW!

what does it mean if guys stare at you alot? im really getting insecure again about my face and personality.

 

Hey briana13, it probably means that they like you. Usually guys stare at their crush and wonder what it's like to be with them. No worries girly. Xoxo
