From Antigone participate in the European project build future, stop bullying on sexist bullying in institutes.

Generally the victims are girls and some guys who don’t adapt to male role. But the reality is that there are indeed sexist bullying: » we believe that stereotypes have disappeared because we live in a society that formally tells us that we are equal but the hidden speech continues to be clearly sexist. There are still many cultural messages in advertising images, video games or cinema that perpetuate gender stereotypes. It’s a renewed sexism «.
