The whole world is starting to realize that it was the most unwise thing for our society to have ignored women power, to run the society with male priorities.

We are still living with a double standard. I know it. Every woman I know knows it, whether you're in the media as a woman, or you're in the professions or business or politics.

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.

I do not believe in sex distinction in literature, law, politics, or trade - or that modesty and virtue are more becoming to women than to men, but wish we had more of it everywhere.

In our civilization, men are afraid that they will not be men enough and women are afraid that they might be considered only women.

In my community, women are as important as males, and they are playing an equal role in the society.

There is a sense that women are more anchored than men in our society.

I suspect there are people in all walks of life who need to be dragged into the 21st century in terms of attitudes towards women.

Women, nowhere in the world, have the kind of important position in society in the amount that they ought to have.

I think, certainly in the more civilized societies, women's roles are growing in power all of the time.
