[Talking about the shows her children watch]: "As I watched kids` programs with them, I became concerned about gender balance and stereotypes. Boys take up much more space on TV than in real life."
When my friends and I would act out movies as kids, we`d play the guys` roles, since they had the most interesting things to do. Decades later, I can hardly believe my sons and daughter are seeing many of the same limited choices in current films.
We`re showing kids a world that is very scantily populated with women and female characters. They should see female characters taking up half the planet, which we do.
