Being the first woman speaker and breaking the marble ceiling is pretty important. Now it's time to move on.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The voices of women need to be heard. The volume needs to be turned up.
We've heard a lot in recent polemic about how to win the fight for the corner office. But pushing up against a glass ceiling is practically a luxury when you consider the millions of women who can feel the floor dropping beneath their feet.
Being Speaker of the House is a really tough spot.
I think that still, for the most part, even in 2010, the vast majority of museum shows and gallery shows and gallerists are pretty much dominated by men. So having a sense of what women are up to, for me, frankly, is very, very important.
Women should never go without earrings. Passing on them is an opportunity missed.
The message I like to convey to women and girls across the globe is that there is no glass ceiling.
I'm all for having an empowered first lady who can really use that position to improve conditions, be a role model and make change.
I like the fact that glass ceilings are breaking all over.
Often we women are risk averse. I needed the push. Now, more than ever, young women need more seasoned women to provide that encouragement, to take a risk, to go for it. Once a glass ceiling is broken, it stays broken.
I believe women still face a glass ceiling that must be shattered.
