Summary | One school's guidelines on what appropriate prom gowns entail went viral on Twitter because of the double standard that girls are subjected to such prescriptivism and also because the text accompanying the images was demeaning towards women. An image of a gown seen as appropriate is captioned with "good girl" resounding how one would talk to a dog rather than young women.

Summary | A photo competition called "Don't touch my WhatsApp" (No me toques el WhatsApp) took place in Spain in order to fight against gender violence. A work called "Connected" won the second prize in the '14-17 year-old' category. According to the director, the photograph represents a different side of today's reality; whereas young people rely a lot on new technologies -which can harm relationships-, the work portrays the substitution of a digital relationship to a face-to-face one. The face-to-face relationship is sincere, direct, responsible, and caring.
