More Than Make-up

Almost half [of girls surveyed] admitted the worst part
about being females is the feeling that they
have to look attractive.

I ♥ Being a Girl, because... I

Girls that were present at our session It's Great to Be a Girl just LOVE being girls, because being a girl to them means being able to:

• feel beautiful
• be more sensitive
  
• be sensible
  
• be strong & sensitive at the same time
  
• be daddy’s girl
  
• be a girl guide
• chose to wear skirts or trousers (and it’s OK)
• cry
• go to the pub with my mates
• wear skirts
• have boobs
• like pink
• reach out more
• enjoy that fight for the equality
