Слушаем, да? И читаем

We teach girls to shrink [уменьшать, сжимать] themselves
To make themselves smaller
We say to girls
"You can have ambition
But not too much
You should aim [стремиться] to be successful
But not too successful
Otherwise you will threaten [представлять угрозу] the man"
Because I am female
I am expected to aspire [стремиться] to marriage
I am expected to make my life choices
Always keeping in mind that
Marriage is the most important
Now, marriage can be a source of
Joy and love and mutual support [взаимная поддержка]
But why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage
And we don't teach boys the same?
We raise girls to each other as competitors [соперницы]
Not for jobs or for accomplishments [достижения]
Which I think can be a good thing
But for the attention of men
We teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings
In the way that boys are
Feminist: the person who believes in the social
Political, and economic equality of the sexes⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
