The Ted Talk

The TED talk by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie explains how everyone should be a feminist. The points she made about being a feminist and a women make sense to me. She explains how we are raising both girls and boys wrong. Another thing she explains is the way society views women who are feminists. Also they way society reasons for make men in charge and why they are wrong.
Chimamanda made a good point about how we teach girls to be to be ambitious but not to much. We also teach women to bow down to men’s egos. I have personally have done this. I have had a friend who was really strong I, and she wanted to arm wrestle him. I told her not to do that because if she did it would hurt his ego. I said this because that's what society has taught me to bend to men's egos buts wrong with her being stronger than her boyfriend. We need to change the way we raise our girls so they don’t do this.
We also need to change the way we raise our boys. Chimamanda made a good point in saying we raise girls to aspire for marriage and not boys. Society says it's wrong for women to not be married at a certain age. They say things like if you wait too long your eggs are going to dry up and you are not getting any younger. If you are a man they say you just haven’t found the right girl you have time. Why do we say this to boys but not girls? Also the thing about boys and girls
Why should men be in charge because they are physically stronger than most women. The person in charge should be intelligent. Like Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie said, “This made sense a thousand years ago because human beings lived then in a world in which physical strength was the most important attribute for survival.” That was a thousand years ago and we have evolved as people. The person in charge doesn’t need to be the strongest. In today's society they need to be smart. Men are not smarter than women as a whole
