Of Girls, Boys, Dolls and Trucks

"Pink is for girls. Blue is for boys. Women can't be the primary wage earner in a family. Men can't do household work. A working mother is evil for choosing career over her kids. "
Have you ever considered that the reason that we're so far away from gender equality is because we're too busy adhering to stereotypes and not breaking some of these?

Waiting for Mr Partum

Jessica Simmons is very much the 'Jill of all trades' at the prestigious Partum Group.
So, when rumour has it that their new Managing Partner, Partum Jr is expected to make an appearance, she takes it upon herself to make sure she's the first thing he sees.

After all, first impressions are everything, aren't they?
