They should learn about strong female role models and gender equality amid fears many girls are too negative about their own sexuality, it is claimed.
Dr Jessica Ringrose, a lecturer in the sociology of gender at London's Institute of Education, said many schoolgirls defined themselves according to male desire.
In a study, she said girls often used sexualised language, calling each other "w
e" or "slut", and boasted about being good at sex. They felt that "everything was at stake" if they did not appear sexy or feminine towards boys.
To combat this, she said space should be found in the curriculum to discuss feminist issues, boosting their self-respect.
Oh FFS. Just fook off. And iron this shirt while you're doing it.

I love this stuff.
From the Claims Direct website - Testimionals page.....
Claims Direct Website said:
A Claims Direct client had just started work for a new company. At the end of his first week he was made to ride a clown’s bicycle as part of an initiation ceremony in front of his work colleague while they all had a beer. He initially refused but the managing director practically forced him to do so. The managing director gave him a big push from behind, which caused him to fall off and sprain his wrist.
Despite the employer initially denying liability – calling the bicycle “sophisticated circus equipment” – the case was eventually settled for £1,500.
