Unless we include a job as part of every citizen's right to autonomy and personal fulfillment, women will continue to be vulnerable to someone else's idea of what need is.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's important for women to work. They need to keep their independence, to keep earning and being challenged.
I really think we need more women to lean into their careers and to be really dedicated to staying in the work force.
The deal is that women have entered the workforce, but they have not been relieved of the domestic responsibilities.
There needs to be radical development in equality law to create the environment to allow women to stay in work.
I have a theory that women are generally given space and appointed to jobs when the situation is tough. I've observed that in many instances. In times of crisis, women eventually are called upon to sort out the mess, face the difficult issues and be completely focused on restoring the situation.
We simply can no longer afford to deny the full potential of one half of the population. The world needs to tap into the talent and wisdom of women. Whether the issue is food security, economic recovery, health, or peace and security, the participation of women is needed now more than ever.
Perhaps there is no greater issue facing contemporary women than the choices they must make about balancing home and work.
I do believe that, under the law, under the Constitution of the United States, and under our public policy, that women deserve and should have a right to enjoy equal employment opportunity.
There are certainly a lot of things that still need to change when it comes to women in the workforce.
Women have to risk civil disobedience for their rights.
