Yes boys and girls are equal, but the problem is that often in our society they don't have access to the same opportunities.

Thankfully there are a lot of men and women are working to ensure that things change and young people of both genders have the chance to participate equally - whether it is access to education, or freedom to act in a certain way. You can also be one of these people by politely speaking up when you notice that people are treated differently because of their gender.
