For every girl who is tires of acting
weak when she is strong, there is a boy
tired of appearing strong when he feels
vulnerable.

For every boy who is burdened with
the constant expectation of knowing
everything, there is a girl tired of people
not trusting her intelligence.

For every girl who is tired of being
called Over-Sensitive, there is a boy
who fears to be gentle, to weep.

For every boy for whom competition is
the only way to prove his masculinity,
there is a girl who is called unfeminine
when she competes.

For every girl who throws out
her E-Z-Bake oven,
there is a boy who wishes to find one.

For every boy struggling not
to let advertising dictate
his desires, there is a girl facing
the ad industry's attacks on her self esteem.

FOR EVERY GIRL WHO TAKES A STEP TOWARD
HER LIBERATION, THERE IS A BOY WHO
FINDS THE WAY TO FREEDOM A LITTLE EASIER.
