WORK-LIFE CHOICES/BALANCE :: This is the best time for women in human history: Clinton (WebIndia123 / Daylife 7-23-09)

(WebIndia123 / Daylife summary 7-23-09)

It sure is an exciting time and right now is a better time in human history to be a woman. This is a tremendous opportunity and responsibility for me and I willingly accept.

My husband had my complete support and he had a successful career in politics. I just couldn't enter politics as my daughter was growing up. I really feel that I had a chance to pursue my public service interests and take care of my family responsibility together.

It sure is an exciting time and right now is a better time in human history to be a woman. This is a tremendous opportunity and responsibility for me and I willingly accept.

Hillary's right - It's a better time. But, she also knows there's a long way to go. The gender bias in America is more subtle than in some countries - but the treatment of Hillary and Sarah Palin revealed a level of sexism that many of us were not fully aware of prior to Hill's candidacy.

Hillary has done so much for women, and continues to do so. The strength and dignity she demonstrated in the face of such unfairness and unrelenting sexism in 2008, made her detractors look small and petty. Like the song says - "You can bend but never break me, cause it only serves to make me more determined to achieve my final goal". It's like it was written specifically for Hillary.
