What Social Pressures Impact Teenage Girls? - S5 E4

Gender stereotypes: attitudes, attributes, and actions imposed on men and women based on binary gender. 

This week's 8th grade hosts, Ava and Dinora, partner up to interview classmates Julia and Madeline. The teens take on the topic of gender stereotypes for teen girls, including a focus on the impact on female health habits. Specifics include body image, athletic demands, sexist expectations, middle school pressures, mean boys, mental health, eating and sleep habits, the influence of parents and siblings, and more.
