That they are somehow not equipped, they are not strong enough, they are not smart enough, they are not capable enough to quote unquote have it all.
And I think that that's really sad.
It is the bigotry of low expectations for women and actually frankly is misogynistic against women when women are told that because they tell you if you find yourself pregnant in college, you won't be able to graduate.
Kill your baby actually because that's the only way that you'll ever be able to be successful.
They'll tell you if you're thinking about getting married to someone, you'll never have a fulfilling career because his career will always come before yours.
And there is no such thing as real sacrifice and compromise in a marriage.
It's a patriarchal institution.
So you better never embrace that type of emotional fulfillment for your life.
If you're pregnant and working a high-powered job, they'll tell you, eh.
OK, but you're going to have to take some time off or be a lot more flexible.
And frankly, we would rather, as a Fortune 500 company, just pay for you to go out of state and stay in a luxury hotel for the weekend and pay for your abortion rather than offer better maternity leave.
And I think that we have built this culture that calls itself feminist and calls itself pro-woman when actually we are constantly telling women you're too weak, you're too stupid, you are too ill-equipped.
to have a family and this other vocation that you are pursuing.
And that is obviously not true.
It is difficult.
It's challenging.
It's hard.
It requires immense sacrifice in so many different ways.
And you probably aren't going to be able to binge watch Netflix every night or go out with your girlfriends every single weekend.
But it is beautiful and empowering and fulfilling, unlike anything else the world has to offer you.
