Throughout my career I have been an advocate for women, in all aspects of their lives.

I have always been interested in gender politics, so I'm not that keen on doing things that don't represent a truth about women.

I want to organize so that women see ourselves as people who are entitled to power, entitled to leadership.

I am not telling men to step away from speaking for women's rights; rather, I am focusing on women to be independent to fight for themselves.

Women have a lot to say about how to advance women's rights, and governments need to learn from that, listen to the movement and respond.

I cannot support a measure that chooses to protect some women and not others.

Women need to become conscious of the impact that their attitudes and actions can have on future generations of voters and politicians.

I really want women to know their power, to value their experience. To understand that nothing has been more wholesome in the political process than the increased involvement of women.

All I want is to let women know that I will be there to support and encourage them when they set out to do something.
