Boys are seen as breadwinners while girls are seen as a burden across every social class. Boys are more likely to receive more nutritious food and better medical care than girls.

That is just beyond sad.

Are you able to coax your webserver to add the charset to the content type header? Browsers are having a hard time thinking you are sending latin-1
