This generation is famous for its efforts in advocating for women and promoting women empowerment. Ideally, advocating for women means they are being encouraged to speak up, make their voice heard, and stand their ground.

Keep Reading Today, I'm going to share an example of the contradiction of this notion about supporting women's ambitions through the story of the Sex and the City star Kim Cattrall. I'm going to share the efforts she made to reach out, salvage the film, and at the same time pursue what's best for her.
