The Government is committed to gender equality and to ensuring that the rights of both women and men to participate fully in society are upheld. In particular, in line with the whole of government approach being taken to the prevention of gender-based violence, the values of respect for oneself and others are promoted in an appropriate way in a range of awareness raising campaigns, online and in other media, and in our education system.

Advocating attitudes and behaviour which further gender stereotyping, are manipulative and are demeaning and disrespectful to women is inconsistent with gender equality.
