About This Quote

Men tend to treat women as fragile creatures, but our bodies were built to withstand pain and hard work, think with profound insight. We were created to do what men can't, and if that isn't reason enough for us to be treated equal, I'm not sure what is. This quote by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is a powerful statement for women. The idea that we are built differently than men is a common one, and it is important to discuss the differences between the sexes.

However, this quote focuses on what makes women different from men. We were designed differently for a purpose.
