The Gender Agenda by James Millar
Aiming to tackle gender stereotypes head-on, two parents tweeted about the differences they experienced in raising their son and their daughter. What began as an attempt to retain their sanity in a gender obsessed world became a life changing experiment about gender identity presented in this collection of their online writing.
One daughterOne son. Two different worlds. This book is a fascinating insight in how gender inequality is embedded in our society from the earliest years of a child's life. -- Jo Swinson, former Lib Dem Equalities Minister
An eye-opening account of the little things that cumulatively make a big difference to the way boys and girls are raised. Fascinating, shocking and full of useful tips on how to fight back against the 'gender police'. Every parent should read it. -- Rebecca Asher, author of Shattered and Man Up
An arresting account of the way casual everyday comments about children reflect and reinforce gender stereotypes. We recommend this book at least once a week - it explains why we campaign. -- Let Toys Be Toys
Perceptive, practical and powerful. -- Cordelia Fine, Professor at the University of Melbourne and the author of Delusions of gender: The real science behind sex differences and Testosterone Rex: Unmaking the myths of our gendered minds.
