Here in her own words she speaks about her personal experiences as a woman in America, not to long ago. Mrs Clinton, I'm sure had similar life experiences.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, one of the first woman in her college class, grad top of the class! and couldn't even get a job in law firms because they didn't want woman. She went on to become a college professor. President Clinton picked her for SC.
