Halle Berry Says She Encourages Her Son Maceo, 7, to Challenge Gender Stereotypes

By James St. James on February 1, 2021 11:44 am

Speaking at the Sundance Film Festival/Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s panel ‘Women Breaking Barriers: An Industry Shift’, Halle Berry says she has been encouraging her seven-year-old son Maceo to challenge gender stereotypes

 ‘I have realised what my job is in raising him. If we want to have a future that’s different, that is where it starts.

‘You made me think of how many conversations I’ve had with him, say, since he’s turned five years old, about the differences in boys and girls, and I see how he’s taught to feel like he’s superior, at five, than girls are.

‘I’ve had to really break that down for him and give him a new perspective, and challenge those thoughts and ask him to identify where that comes from, and if he believes that or not and challenge what he’s subconsciously getting from somewhere.

‘I can tell that because we’re having those conversations he is going to grow as a deep thinker on the subject. He’s going to be determined not to just accept it.’

Speaking virtually, she went on: ‘I keep challenging him all the time, like “Well, why is that a ‘girl colour?'”

Halle also revealed she discusses the issue of sexism with both of her children – she shares daughter Nahla, 12, with Gabriel Aubry.

Maceo is her child with Olivier Martinez.
