Have you ever been bullied for not fitting into the gender stereotype? In this talk, Ulrikke Falch sheds light on the very prevalent gender conformity issues in society and offers a whole new perspective to gender norms. Ulrikke Falch is an 23-year-old actress, author, and activist from Norway. She gained fame from the Norwegian tv-show SKAM, in the role as Vilde Lien. Ulrikke uses her platform to spread awareness about eating disorders, mental health, and feminism. In 2019 she released a documentary called The F-Word, a series that depicts our attitudes to gender and expectations to masculinity and femininity. Her main cause is to reveal structural and cultural convictions that contribute to maintaining traditional gender roles.
