Everyone has a role to play when it comes to comba

Everyone has a role to play when it comes to combating misogynistic language!

If you hear someone make a sexist joke, use gendered slurs, patronizing remarks, etc., you have the power to shut it down!

Remind the person that you don't find those kinds of jokes funny and that it's not okay to use that kind of language.

Help shift their perspective on women for a more respectful world—one response at a time!

You can help the person realize that their mindset is unfair, which could in turn prevent harassment, and even assault.
