As you are growing and learning and forming your own opinions about what it means to be a woman in 2017. I encourage, no, I beg of you, to be thoughtful and careful in choosing your role models. The Kardashians, Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, Nancy Pelosi, Elizabeth Warren, and Hillary Clinton, to name but a few, should not be your idols. Women like Nikki Haley, Condoleezza Rice, Michelle Malkin, and Sarah Sanders, on the other hand,are wonderful examples of strength, brains and class. They represent real success for women's rights. They needed neither sex, sensationalism or public protests to get them where they are today. What they did was put their heads down, worked hard, studied, and proved their way to the top. That is true equality. They are different races, come from different backgrounds, and have followed different career paths. What makes them stand out is their grace, strength and brains. They are ladies to be admired and emulated.
