Whenever I think about it being hard to be a woman, or hear someone say some sexist comment about women, I remember reading a quote that goes something like this “Ginger Rogers had to do the same dance steps as Fred Astaire and be just as good, but she did it backwards and in high heels!” It reminds me that its possible to accomplish anything that you set your mind to.
