Emma Watson launched #HeForShe (a UN campaign concerned with gender equality) in New York in September 2014 with a poignant, game-changing speech. Emma extended a ‘formal invitation’ to men, asking them to view gender equality not as a women’s issue, but as everyone's issue, a human rights issue. (x)

“Both men and women should feel free to be sensitive. 

Both men and women should feel free to be strong.”
