The article is about how stereotyping and underestimation starts at a very young age. It talks about how parents, even though they may not purposely mean it, discriminate against the ability of girls. Parents limit the abilities of girls as they grow up by treating them like they are not as able or need to be safer.

I stress reading this article. When a problem is finally acknowledged as an issue, we are able to begin tackling it. One of the first steps to fixing anything is seeing that a problem actually exists. A change can not be made until everyone recognizes it as a problem. Ultimum Dominarum is working towards enlightening and influencing the people of the world to work to fix this issue.
You should do a post on dress codes and how its biased against girls. I know your blog is about robotics, except I think it's also about girl power, and I feel like dress codes are an important issue that almost every girl has or is experiencing.
