About this Quote

This quote by Faye Wattleton speaks with the limited expectations and stereotypes that ladies are typically held to in our society. Females are typically anticipated to fit into one classification, whether it be a mom, a spouse, a profession female, or something else. This quote suggests that this expectation is a sad commentary on the way women are viewed in our society, as it restricts the potential of females and does not allow them to explore their complete range of abilities. Wattleton suggests that she has actually never ever felt the requirement to fit into one classification, and that females ought to be permitted to explore their full potential without being limited by societal expectations. This quote talks to the need for greater gender equality and the significance of allowing females to explore their full range of capabilities without being restricted by societal expectations.
