Girls revealed the challenges they are facing and what they want to change.

This year the girls and young women who took part in Girlguiding’s 2016 survey revealed that they feel held back by gender stereotypes, sexism, and anxiety about how they look.

They said they think they may not achieve their aspirations because they do not feel safe, that they are facing double standards on what behaviour is acceptable because they are girls not boys, and that they don’t feel the same roles are open to them as are open to boys.
