One of the most awful things to me is that women are still not considered equal to men. I was listening to the news this morning and a 90 year old lady was sharing her story. When she finished high school, she wanted to go to college but her chosen field of study was only open to men. She did not have any options for school, so she was left to chose another career. Now, at ninety-something, she is finally being given the chance to fulfill her dreams, with women that are nearly forty years her junior.
While this lady is able to finally live out her dreams, women still have troubles convincing their peers that they can do everything that men could do. Well, if you face this problem, you have only one solution. I'll let Emma Watson reveal it to you.
I think at this point, if you are a woman, then it is always your responsibility to show that no matter what you want to do, that you are just as worthy as men are -- of everything. Remember that next time someone says you aren't able to or aren't supposed to do something.

“Fear, to a great extent, is born of a story we
tell ourselves, and so I chose to tell myself a different story from the
one women are told. I decided I was safe. I was strong. I was brave.
Nothing could vanquish me. Insisting on this story was a form of mind
control, but for the most part, it worked.” // Cheryl Strayed
