Thanks to Feminist Dads
My #FeministDad
Say thanks to all the dads out there who strive for an equal world for their daughters
Father’s Day is a day to say thanks to all the dads who do so much for us. A dad’s influence is huge – supportive fathers can help us to have higher levels of self-esteem and improved life satisfaction as a whole. Fathers can also play a crucial role in influencing both boys and girls perceptions around gender equality.
This Father’s Day we want to say a big thanks to all the feminist dads who help make our world more equal. Whether it’s giving their daughters the confidence to go after whatever they want to do in life, or bringing their sons up to treat girls as equals, their actions are making a difference.
Say thanks to your #FeministDad on social media by acknowledging the big or small actions our dads do to create a better world for girls.
Thank your #FeministDad
