Telling Women's Lives

Unfinished Business

I fully support and agree with the idea of having more women in higher positions within corporate America and more. However, I disagree with the thought of just “having one-third women unlocks the door to change.” My thoughts and sentiments align with the phrase, “Women should feel no acceptable limits”. I think that in any social movement or initiative, the goal should be to achieve above and beyond, not just mediocrity. Steps have been taken so far, but I think it is up women to say that is not enough and we want much more. I think there should be more women at the front lines spreading awareness of the issue, not just for the sake of better government and/or better businesses, but because it is fair and just. We shouldn’t have to make arguments and provide facts/reasons as to why we need more women in these fields. On the other hand, it is nice to see the evidence of strong, independent women as not only examples of leaders but also empowerment within the community of women.
