Gloria's ideas are still as relevant as they ever were. voice-verified

Glad that you raised that because Gloria always wanted to stress this idea that everyone can be a mother, everyone can mother. voice-verified

She said, We are all able to mother, whatever our sex or our age or our abilities. voice-verified

It's impossible for me to hear that quote from her and not think about Dolly Parton and the fact that last week we were hearing how she saw herself as very much mothering the nation or mothering the world. voice-verified

And it's just so interesting. voice-verified

Interesting that we had these two examples of women who did not fit the traditional mold for what we want from women in the public eye. voice-verified

I think if there's one vein of the criticism that does have a little bit of a ring of truth here, it's that these second-generation feminist leaders, such as Gloria Steinem, were not always the most tuned to the intersectionality of feminism, the way that class and race intersect with women's rights. voice-verified

And I can see how some younger Australians in particular look at that. voice-verified

Contention that they are supposed to be living their mother's unlived lives. voice-verified

And they say that's impossible for us because we cannot afford a home. voice-verified

I could see how there'd be a bit of anger there. voice-verified

Like, Gloria, I can't live. voice-verified

Live my mother's unlive life because it's so much harder for me. voice-verified

And we are seeing that young Australians are the first generation to be potentially going backwards economically. voice-verified

And that's a big deal. voice-verified

And that's very different to what Gloria is saying. voice-verified

Is saying. voice-verified
