>We need to start emphasizing the success of women CEOs
Why? I don't want to emphasize anything. Can these people leave us alone and stop telling everyone what they should be doing. Who do they think they are, I am so sick of this.
If you crop the quote like that, you miss the point, which is that if you're going to have a female-positive stance rather than an egalitarian one(I have the latter), you should at least emphasize the success rather than the womanliness.
This is so that you are talking about the potential for success regardless of being a woman, rather than the womanliness despite being successful, the latter construing it as though being a woman is incompatible with success.
I cried male tears of joy, and when I showed this to my friend, she smiled as well. I'd upvote more than once if I could.
