Wait. What??? I have so many questions. Let me start at the beginning:
First, I’m all for promoting kindness. In fact, I’d love to see that be a real, actual thing, but this isn’t it. Telling girls they literally can’t say “no” is not promoting kindness. Not one bit. That’s telling girls that any boy who wants to put his grubby mitts on you is fine, because, “Be kind, little lady!” Any boy who gives you the heebie jeebies or just isn’t your cup of tea gets to hold you close while you sway to a song in the dark, because, “Boys have sensitive feelings, girl!” “

This is so wrong and so short-sighted in so many ways.

Oh this makes me so ….. haven’t we learned what not saying “no” can do to someone?

Apparently not. Or maybe the ones making these decisions don’t have young girls? It’s mystifying.

That title tho lol!
This is one of the most ridiculous acts of ‘kindness’ I’ve ever heard. Instead, why don’t we teach little boys how to kindly take rejection when a girl tells you no?

Right?!? And teach girls *how* to kindly say no. That’s another great lesson. They missed the boat on this one.

They really did. I just want to know how many people they ran that idea past that said, ‘Yea, that’s great!’ Not ONE person objected? That’s a huge issue if that’s the case.
