Summary

If you searched the question:

“What player has won the most Wimbledon singles titles,” Google will tell you it’s Roger Federer with 8 wins.

But that’s incorrect. Martina Navratilova has 9.

This week, we look at remarkable ideas that promote gender equality.

Including an idea called Correct the Internet.com

And one that challenged menstruation taboos with a program called “Touch the pickle.”
