It was great to see women finally getting the opportunity to have jobs which was traditionally only given to men in my industry. I was fortunate to get one myself, heard lots of chatter but then the males started accepting us, some continued to hold to their old beliefs. We proved we were just as capable. Hillary lived in the same era, as Joe Biden said once, this is a big effing deal.
