The potential 2016 presidential candidate galvanized the U.N. commemoration of International Women’s Day on Friday, repeating her resounding declaration as first lady at the 1995 U.N. women’s conference in Beijing that “human rights are women’s rights — and women’s rights are human rights.”
Clinton said Friday that important progress has been made since then but “no country in the world has achieved full participation, and women and girls still comprise the majority of the world’s unhealthy, unfed and unpaid.”
She called for greater opportunities for women and girls and urged the U.N. to include gender equality at the forefront of its new goals to promote development.
how about equality for diplomats and overseas American citizens even in Benghazi
What Ms. Clinton really wants is that women will be tuned up in higher stature for their beauty and resolve rather than to be blessed by human friends for their finesse and higher intellectual integrity. Overall, women’s rights are a true calling when there are issues in the workplace and in the community; but unless there is a specific event, there is no movement in this era for womens rights considering that the biggest movement was the women’s right to vote in the earlier 1900s. It would be upsetting to think that we need to be more careful with what we say about women on a daily basis considering that there are more anticipations of good hope for limited blessing in higher repute for bargains of unhappiness for more considerations of joy. I would be more inclined to think that we should have beggars rights in the street before we try to make a movement to improve the worry free chowder that they want to feed the front pages for “women’s rights” today. Overall, a higher paying job does not necessarily demonstrate higher skill sets. And if you want true friendships in human hope, take care of your grandmother and your mother. (ctd)
It is not a change of higher blessing to limit the voice of human kindness to limit choice for better favor. Needs of the marketplace are not always needs of the featured liberty of human faith. And Ms. Clinton is more apt to try to impress upon you that she needs to be the president because of her gender than her own assets.
Women’s movements are always a blessing if they bring about true service and understanding in higher religion and favor for human intent. Most of these “women’s rights” movements today only bring about passive aggression for human insolvency for human direction.
So I am not in with Ms. Clinton unless she has a direct obvious compassion and not a limit of feel good therapy for her tribe of the impassionate.
No thanks.
I am a modern orthodox woman who just turned 60. I think that women have received absolutely nothing, or just about nothing, from the women’s movement other than more work for our gender. Men can learn full time because women have become very educated. So men learn and women go out and earn the money and then come home and take care of their multitude of children. Ridiculous. Modern Orthodox women share the financial burden with their husbands but then come home and do the lion’s share of child rearing and caretaking. Ridiculous. When the children get sick, the women have to take off, putting their jobs in jeopardy. Women earn less than men. Ridiculous.
I don’t think the women’s movement did women any favors.
