Michelle Obama Doesnāt Like The Stereotypes
Michelle Obama said that itās totally appropriate for a woman to make her own choices about what she wants to do, and just because she isnāt pinned to her husbandās side every minute of the day doesnāt mean they will divorce.
āBut thatās what society does to us,ā she said. āWe start actually, finally going, āWhat am I doing? Who am I doing this for?ā And if it doesnāt fit into the sort of stereotype of what people think we should do, then it gets labeled as something negative and horrible.ā
