Olga Golodets Reminds Women of Their Feminine Natures

During a meeting with the members of the group “G(irls) 20,” Russian Deputy Prime Minister, Olga Golodets, noted that questions of gender equality today are often replaced with an agenda of promoting a lack of gender differences.

“Up until now, by developing policies of gender equality, we have insisted that we are women, we love our femininity. Gender equality does not mean a unisex policy, this is the policy of comfortable lives for women in the modern world,” – RIA Novosti quoted Golodets.

In the opinion of the Deputy Prime Minister, in order to strengthen women’s influence on economic, social, and political processes, it is necessary to create favorable conditions, which include receiving an education and the opportunity to start a career along with successful motherhood. As Golodets remarked, qualities like a hard-working attitude, professionalism, and a genuine love for what you are doing have helped her in life.

Every year on the eve of the G20 summit a meeting with “G(irls)20” is organized, the first of which occurred in 2010. This year, “G(irls)20” presented 21 women from “G20” nations, as well as from the African Union. Members must not exceed 20 years old.

Women – also human beings!

Elektritsar Latunniy (responding to above):

Women – friends of the people!

Orlengos:

Women have another destiny

Busya (responding to above):

Enlighten me – another [destiny], in what way? Give yourself up to only giving birth to children and living by the laws thought up by men, which are disastrous for families, children, and women? Certain responsibilities and no rights.

Orlengos (responding to above):

Love your husband, give birth to your beloved’s children, raise them, run the household, be the hearth of the family. But feminists propose to be cold, business women, who lead children along a calculated path….

As Golodets remarked, qualities like a hard-working attitude, professionalism, and a genuine love for what you are doing have helped her in life. YES, it’s good that she gives advice to others from her high-horse. Let her say how she managed to get a tasty chunk of foreign real estate. Now every thief and swindler will tell us about their hard-working attitude. Abramovich was probably super hard-working!!! Somehow these qualities help others very little in Russia. Jesus, and they’re not embarrassed to mess with others’ minds (I put that lightly).

Ded Yegor (responding to above):

You put it just fine, in line with gender identification: if you said it “rougher” – it would be manly…))
