Dear Leader, Women have been socialized to make ourselves smaller. We are rewarded for being thin, shorter than our male mates, and less voluble. Enough of that stuff!
As a consequence, we take up
less space literally and metaphorically.This is just wrong and we need to change it.
Warmest regards and no excuses, Gloria Feldt Co-founder and President, Take The Lead @Gloria Feldt
