I think if women are visible in the media, truly visible, in an empowered role, it empowers us to be more visible in any area of our lives.

When women say that going on publications directed at men is somehow demeaning, I don't think that's true. I think that's one really effective way to change the societal standard women are held to.

Technology is one of the key drivers of female economic empowerment, but the fields that women choose to participate in are still decidedly gendered.

There's a power in women being women. There's a role for men, but we don't have to be men, because we're women. I think that representing that on television is a cool thing.

The media could do a much better job, that's for sure, especially the media that targets women... Human rights? They couldn't care less!

I think, in general, more women need to be involved in music and in the industry - that's been an issue.

I think the media's a little frightened of women.

My experiences with gender bias are probably the norm. What I found was that expectations of women were simply lower, and this resulted in being overlooked for certain opportunities.

Feminism has been so co-opted, but the fact is, feminism benefits men as well.

Has feminism made us all more conscious? I think it has. Feminist critiques of anthropological masculine bias have been quite important, and they have increased my sensitivity to that kind of issue.
