00:00Gender equality is a very ordinary objective.

00:03I'm repeating that.

00:04It's a very, very ordinary objective.

00:06Gender equality is much the same as saying that

00:09since he is the male chimpanzee,

00:12so I want to be his equal as a female chimpanzee.

00:16How glorious does that sound?

00:17Please tell me.

00:18Do not ask for equality.

00:19Men are stupid.

00:21Why do you want to be equal to them?

00:22Why do you want to even proceed in the same dimension as they have?

00:27Political power has been with men.

00:29Economic power has been with men.

00:31Don't you see what they have done with their power?

00:33Do you want to be female copies of men remaining females biologically

00:39but trying to become men psychologically?

00:42Is that what you want to become?

00:43No.

00:43So just don't try to seek parity with men.

00:46In fact, you can learn from all the misdeeds of men

00:49and woe to not repeat them.

00:51That's the only thing you can look towards men for.

00:54Look at men and say,

00:55I don't want to be equal to him.

00:57Being equal to him is an insult.
