Love Gloria Steinem, she's terrific!

[@Afflictamine]

she is terrible, and worked for the CIA

[@KarinaLicursi]

Forget reading the comments section. I'll just take my education, birth control, freedom of speech and continue moving along the train of choice. It's a lot more rewarding that keeping my hands in flour all day.

[@Afflictamine]

yes CIA operatives are great role models....

[@creator2149]

Men should raise the children too. I agree. Some of the men in my life and growing up would hate Gloria Steinem. There are still a lot of ignorance today as well.

[@lusetania]

great interview. Amazing woman. I cant believe how old she is.

[@sarahjames5849]

This women is amazing! Some of the The comments on this video make me want to barf. But then I remeber if you are so ignorant of what the waves of feminsim as done for you you will probably amount to nothing anyway.

[@youreaquickone]

Sarah James girl yes. They mistake empathy and kindness for weakness and hate us for that. If we show strength they hate us for that too. Our job is to not care about men's opinions of our place in the world and just do what makes us happy. If that makes them sad and angry, who cares?

[@LuciferXFallen290]

As far as third wave feminism goes, all they've done is taken away human rights from men. So basically the do Jack sh**. 3rd wave feminism is not needed and you know it!

[@Ms12emily]

The glory that is Steinem continues to inform and encourage me.

[@dannyhuffman]

Hi Kathleen hope you’re okay?

[@desertmodern7638]

Her calm and intelligence is positively intoxicating.

[@DaisysmileAu]

Great speech. I especially agree with the balance in relationships, therefore empowering women to gain self esteem, respect and having the freedom to get an education. As a result, blossoming into confident women and being good role models for their daughters.

[@n.leticiatrevino7823]

I admire your intelligence and courage to be yourself, you are free!

[@LadyFancyful]

Great interview

[@georgeeliot2012]

As a woman of similar age, my face bears the same WTF lines and wrinkles. Resisting and persisting!

[@LuxuryLindsey]

Feliz Cumpleños MS. Steinhem! 80 never looks so fucking great. Cheers!

[@jennifertaylor2893]

Gloria has been reading bell hooks (sic). She does spell her name in lower case. She is a Brilliant African American Philosopher and Educator.

[@diogoferreira5977]

Amazing woman

[@TheGranti7a]

Remembering a woman who is still living?! It seems imminently important to distinguish our lives by cognizantly saying: 'remembering a woman's accomplishments...'

[@annasan451]

dignity and respect and freedom . these are real and they feel so good . life is a sacrament . life is also short . choice and balance and grace .

[@psshakti5756]

LOVE GLORIA!!

[@gulsahcavusoglu7094]

[@jarodcarnarvon5198]

[@CassandraRussell1]

[@jennifertaylor2893]

Define your own personal success/authenticity. Stop obsessing about ageing. Some die very young.

[@riobrasilsambashowssambist1453]

3:39 was the interviewer trying to show herself as so much younger?

[@MegaDeltaqueen]

JANE!!!!

[@kaylachapman14]

Conformed society has taught me to choose a side. Are you looking at the whole picture?

[@RNcelia]

Dam She looks good

[@zd1322]

Value caregiving economically? You mean......................................................day care or babysitting? -_________-

[@helenclement4047]

great interview but the hmmm hmmm is very distracting ..

[@eemage9476]

For most 30 years old women today, women always have been in position of power. This lady belong to the 20 century.

[@irinaenescu]

Cromanetothee, how comes that this diabolical woman and CIA agent makes me feel so better with myself and in this world and you don't? Just asking.

[@BaronV-gp1eb]

This woman is vague in her assertions.. “there is no gender” is the basis for women today saying or coming up with toxic masculinity.. if men and women are the same as she asserts then why is masculinity toxic..

[@cosmicwaderer1247]

Mrs gloria steinem " A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle." After saying this she got married. I guess the fish does need the bicycle. Gloria the CIA operative Admirer of the man hating Andrea Dworkin But she did help 2nd wave feminism which was needed so she did do some good. Her support of the poisonous 3rd wave feminism is disapointing.

[@gloriacurnutt7146]

It's all about "choice." Don't have to "need" to love and marry. As a matter of fact, much healthier not to "need."

[@allizappamcminn4376]

Gloria Curnutt Nah,,,Gloria Steinem sometimes say anti-male words.I don't think that's gender equality

[@sojournsojourntraveler1203]

Gloria Steinem The Luciferian/ Rothschild /CIA agent to help take down the nuclear family in favor of communism .

[@LukeLovesRose]

It's good to see someone familiar here, Marcara081. We're in the lion's den or lioness's den, all alone. Try to help feminists here understand the hate that comes out of them. Ha! Women sure know how to live in fantasy worlds, with walls built by denial. Accountability and responsibility is like the devil to these women and their warped worlds.

[@SGTRVN1]

Want to know why men no longer want to marry an American woman? Look no further then Gloria. She said "a woman needs a man, like a fish needs a bicycle". How that workin out for you honeys.

[@babyirene3188]

As long as as a young women feels she needs to speak in such a frantic, disjointed, awkward breathless manner as the host does here there's still a long long long way to go.

[@CODENAMEMGTOW33]

I'm sick....

[@LukeLovesRose]

Didn't you know? To these psychopathic, overgrown children, sex of ANY kind = rape... except if it's with another woman, as long as she's not penetrating that holiest of holies that they seem to covet.

[@LukeLovesRose]

In denial much??
