Nothing changes the gender equation more significantly than women's economic freedom.

Female inferiority is internalised by us. Women need a lot more confidence.

Women tend to need the healthcare system more because we bear children. Insurance companies - not all of them, but many of them - 'gender-rate.' Women may pay 40% more for their health insurance than men do.
