Give back to your community. There are many things that we need help with!

6. Be conscious

Be conscious. Take a careful look at unhealthy stereotypes and gender roles around you. You can find them in everything from the media you consume to the jokes you tell, to the things your children learn at school. Challenge everyone you know to be conscious.
