A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt

Have you ever said to yourself, “If only I were a man”? Or are you quite content with being a woman?
 
No, I have never wanted to be a man. I have often wanted to be more effective as a woman, but I have never felt that trousers would do the trick!

Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962) First Lady of the US (1933–1945), politician, diplomat, activist
Column (1941-10), “If You Ask Me,” Ladies’ Home Journal, Vol. 58
