And frankly, being a woman I think gives me a slightly different take on a lot of the issues and on a lot of the solutions to the problems we face.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Women's issues have always been a part of my life.
I focus on a lot of women's issues.
Every woman is just a different kind of problem.
I am a woman, therefore I am a problem solver.
All women's issues are to some degree men's issues and all men's issues are to some degree women's issues because when either sex wins unilaterally both sexes lose.
Nine times out of 10, women don't want to fix a problem, they just want to be understood. I'll never get that.
The notion that somehow women are wildly different infuriates me.
You can't leave out half the world's experience and expect to address all the problems. Women communicate differently and process information differently, which leads them to resolve conflicts differently.
I think one of the most important things we can do as feminists is acknowledge that, even though we have womanhood in common, we have to start to think about the ways in which we're different, how those differences affect us, and what kinds of needs we have based on our differences.
All issues are women's issues - and there are several that are just women's business.
