Women Can't Drive, Men Don't Cry, and other stories of Gender Stereotyping: The Story Project 13 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788194888635)

Back in September 2014, Emma Watson gave a speech on gender equality, formally extending an invitation to all men to join the HeforShe movement. She argued that fighting for women's rights is too often equated to man-hating, and she called for a stop to this belief, setting the record straight that feminism is about equality of the genders, not the advancement of women over men. Believe it or not, she was even asked not to use the word "feminism" in her speech.
When one hears the word, 'gender stereotypes' they tend to form a mental image of females being locked in a glass ceiling. The point of this Story Project 13 is to bust that myth and clarify, in the words of Emma Watson "Gender equality not only liberates women but also men from prescribed gender stereotypes."
