Ban Bossy Campaign

HAVE YOU SEEN THE BAN BOSSY CAMPAIGN? IT WAS TRENDING TOPIC #BANBOSSY!!

When a little boy asserts himself, he's called a "leader". Yet when a little girl does the same, she risks being branded "bossy". Words like bossy send a message: don't raise your hand or speak up. By middle school, girls are less interested in leading than boys - a trend that continues into adulthood. Together we can encourage girls to lead.
