Shatter Stereotypes [The fight for gender rights]

This petition was published by Emily on Oct 10, 2007

We, the undersigned, call on the publishers of dictionaries everywhere, to remove the word 'gender' from their products, or to rephrase their definition of the word.

There is no longer a specific definition that applies to gender. Gender is not just male and female. Only promoting these two sexes as the options for a gender promotes discrimination towards others who do not fit into male or female categories.

No one should be forced into labels of what they are not. Help us destroy gender stereotypes, ignorance and accept each other equally.
