There has always been a lot of pressure on girls regarding dating.  There are so many traps that can put labels on her. Terrible ones.  Disgusting ones.  

I encourage us to continue supporting girls as they navigate personal relationships along with sexism and misogyny.  

…the pressure to have a relationship partner(peers).
…the pressure to have sex with your relationship partner and engage in certain activities with your relationship partner.

…..the pressure to be what your family wants, be what your relationship partner wants, and figure out what you want or even who you are.
