00:05the person who has to be held responsible is Donald Trump so everyone associated with him
00:12they're either on board with that or they're not and if they're not they need to be speaking out
00:19or leaving but if they remain silent and just give lip service to contrary points of view then they
00:28are part of his agenda and should be judged and held accountable for that being a woman in public
00:35life is like being on a high wire with no net and there is a double standard about women and
00:42I try
00:43to explain that and I consulted a friend of mine Sheryl Sandberg who as you know is the COO of
00:51Facebook they said all the research shows that the more successful a man becomes the more likable
00:57he becomes the more professionally successful a woman becomes the less likable she becomes
01:07everybody has losses not everybody will lose a presidential campaign but there will be all
01:12kinds of losses and disappointments that are just part of human nature and life we know ambition is
01:22is a double-edged sword it's fine for a young man or a man of any age to be ambitious
01:28but a young
01:29woman or a woman of any age to be ambitious raises all kinds of dissonance in people's minds when someone
01:40who is now our president in the White House gives voice to those kinds of degrading comments about women
01:52who's caught on tape saying those kinds of things it gives a license to people to be more outspoken against
02:05women against our progress against our rights and I think it's really important for young women to
02:13recognize yes we've made progress but we have to all continue to stand up for ourselves to stand up for
02:21each other to stand up for the laws that we need and to take on the the sexism that is
02:29so prevalent and
02:31which has been given a real boost by by Trump
