Just to be clear, the Gates Foundation and Melinda in particular, are deeply committed to gender equality. One donation towards supporting men and boys doesn't erase her commitment to girls and women.

"The foundation's Gender Equality Division works to accelerate progress toward a gender-equal world by identifying and dismantling the barriers that prevent women and girls from exercising bodily autonomy, planning for and starting healthy families, and being fully active in their homes, economies, and societies."
