Gender and Exploitation
We have likely all made assumptions based on another person's gender at some point in our lives. These assumptions are often based on stereotypical notions of who is 'male' and who is 'female', how men and women should act, and what is 'proper' or expected for one's gender. Such assumptions can have devastating consequences, and for those of us working to protect children from harm, they risk us failing to protect those who most need our support.
