As a woman and a mother of two girls I have been observing todays world very closely and am very sorry to report that, even though there is a lot of talk about gender equality and more opportunities for women to get executive positions, there is still a lot of pressure on young girls to look beautiful but not to be heard and definitely not in the manner that boys are being heard.

Also as an immigrant I have had the opportunity to compare the way different cultures approach the subject of  feminism and gender equality and I feel we all have a lot of work to do if we want a better life for our daughters.
