WHEN we’re young, we’re told that boys and girls all have the same fair shot to get what they want out of life. We’re taught that everyone has the same right to compete for jobs, and to achieve these dreams.

When we are little, we aren’t jaded enough to believe we can’t aspire to be anything we set our sights on. But then … we grow up.

We don’t think we’ll ever be fighting for our right to be heard, to have a voice. We don’t realise men in power will decide how, and when, and where we do what we want to our bodies.

We don’t even think that the world will write us a set of different rules.

Twelve Elite Daily employees answered what they would do differently if they were men — if they were truly equal — and every answer was different, unique, inspiring and encouraging — and that’s just the beginning.

Elite Daily want to hear from you — tweet, Instagram and Facebook them and let them know what you’d do differently #IfIWereABoy.
