About this Quote

This quote by Joan Jett talks to the gender inequality that has actually been pervasive in culture for centuries. Growing up, Jett was informed that women were not allowed to play rock 'n' roll, a genre of music that was traditionally dominated by guys. This quote speaks to the idea that ladies were not seen as with the ability of playing rock 'n' roll, which they were not enabled to participate in the exact same tasks as guys. This quote also speaks with the suggestion that females were not seen as equivalent to men, which they were not given the same opportunities to seek their interests. This quote is a pointer of the significance of defending sex equal rights and producing a setting where everybody is given the very same opportunities to seek their dreams. It is a tip that we should remain to fight for gender equal rights and also develop an environment where every person is given the very same opportunities to seek their enthusiasms.
