“I made a film about adolescence and what going through it is like for a specific group of girls. Adolescence is always about wanting desperately to be individuals, and also about wanting desperately to fit in. For every teenager it's about finding that balance.” MadeFilmGirlIndividualGroupsBalanceFitFindingsTeenagerAdolescence Author:Linda Goldstein Knowlton
“I want to get young girls excited in science, tech, engineering mathematics, art, design - and how they come together. We've got this Choose Science campaign. Once women are there, though, we have to retain them. When I look at universities, it's not enough to have role models, we need to have champions. We need to have more women in senior leadership positions. There are issues about work-life balance. Women go to have children and then who keeps the lab running? There are many challenges.” ChildrenArtEnoughRunningTogetherGirlChallengesDesignBalanceMathematicsExcitedChampionRole ModelsSeniorLife Balance Author:Kirsty Duncan
“In my freshman year of college, when a male professor asked the class, "Who here identifies as a feminist?" Only one girl raised her hand, and the rest of us just sat there. He basically just shamed us for the rest of the class - in a constructive way. He went around the room and said to each girl, "Why didn't you raise your hand? Feminism means men and women deserve the same rights, and that the balance in the world is currently tilted in men's favour.” MenWorldMeanGirlFeminismCollegeBalanceMen And WomenDeserveFeministSatFreshmanFreshman Year Author:Lindy West

Not every rapper does this, but when the lyrics focus solely on the strip club, 'poppin' bottles' and how many girls they can 'tap,' it distorts what kids are learning. I think if there was more of a female presence in hip hop we could break up the monotony. It's all about balance.” IfsThinkingDoeKidsGirlBreakFocusBalanceFemaleGood ThingsHip HopClubsHipsHopsBottlesRapperMonotonyObjectification Author:Queen Latifah
“I mean to say, I know perfectly well that I've got, roughly speaking, half the amount of brain a normal bloke ought to possess. And when a girl comes along who has about twice the regular allowance, she too often makes a bee line for me with the love light in her eyes. I don't know how to account for it, but it is so."
