Gender Stereotypes with Sex
- Boys are sex-obsessed or have to have sex to be masculine
- Boys control the sexual relationship
- If girls have sex it’s bad, if they don’t it’s also bad
- If girls don’t have boyfriends, they mean nothing
- 85% of girls thinks guys are “cuter” if they have a girlfriend.
Defying Stereotypes
During adolescence, many people try to put a name on you, or define you by your sex life. In order to completely choose yourself, you need to defy those stereotypes, and ignore those names.

- Do what you want to do and think about your personal values
- Ignore all the labels (eg. slut, bitch)
- Don’t talk about your sexual life to too many people (only people you trust)
- Don’t let your sex life define who you are
#ChooseYOU
We chose the campaign #ChooseYOU because we believe that during adolescence, you should be able to choose yourself. It's your life and you should be able to look after yourself. It is important to us to think about ourselves as well as others, because if you aren't your best self, then you can't help others be.
