I didn't see that in the video. But, her five platitudes were faux motivational corp speak. In other words, empty words.

[...] We have surveyed around Australia in the last 20 years over 30.000 women. Girls, Teenagers, Young Women, Older Women, Grandmas... And you know what they tell me? They tell me someway deep down inside them, they don't feel like they are so important. They don't feel like they count. Four out Five.

It's a big number, isn't it? That they may be not good enough. That their legs are too chunky. That their breasts haven't grown the way they hoped. That that girl next to them looks better, and is more beautiful, and her hair is better. And she got a better job and better grades at university and her parents are wealthier. [...] Does that resonate with any of you?

What the hell is she going on about? She is simply describing the human condition. We are being born with a hole inside of ourselves that can never be filled. Everyone feels somehow inadequate. Everyone feels somehow treated unfairly.

So, I guess she is suggesting that a lot of those unhappy women would be happier if they achieved more in their life. Achievement as defined by economical status and job position? Maybe one reason why a lot of mothers don't feel as important anymore is because feminism did such a great job at degrading a mother's status in society. And even if women or mothers go to work, they feel guilty as well. Either because they leave their children for long periods of time as nature did not intend mothers to do, or because they feel their biological clock ticking.

Btw. I hated the way she spoke. Annoyingly condescending. With her dumb rhetorical questions and the way she pronounced them.

Well the whole women are better at taking care of things narrative has been around a lot longer than feminism, but feminists do further it.

I've seen some women say that because women are mothers, they are naturally better at it. The perpetuation of the stupid man stereotype with the smart woman who makes sure he's doing the right thing fits this if those women think that men are like children and have to be 'mothered'.

TedX is absolute trash. Don't waste your time with it.

She calls for misandry via increasing "equality". LOL. Aww man this kills me! She makes the claim that women are smarter than men, then proceeds to talk about female's and inequality.

This talk is blatant misandry, she gives zero fucks about the role and wellbeing of men in society.

Her quote "When women hold a voice, when women hold the power in their community, better jobs, and they give a bigger voice, they actually give a voice to the things that matter. Community, health issues, education"

Okay LOL, so women will run shit better according to her.

Women make up a large portion of the education sector, dont they already have a voice there? Women already have a ton of research, and health based programs MADE just for their needs. I dont understand what she is claiming with her statement.

Misandry.
