Carly Fiorina Seeks To Redefine Feminism In 'State Of Women In America' Address
By Ryan Lovelace, Jun. 11, 2015, Washington Examiner
Carly Fiorina will give an address on "the state of women in America" on Thursday night that reveals her intention to redefine the word, "feminist."
"A feminist is a woman who lives the life she chooses," Fiorina said. "We will have arrived when every woman can decide for herself how to best find and use her God-given gifts. A woman may choose to have five children and home-school them. She may choose [to] become a CEO or run for president. I am conservative because I know we are all equal in the eyes of God — men and women."
The former Hewlett-Packard CEO turned Republican presidential candidate has also been critical of conservatives' outreach to female voters in the past, and organized the Unlocking Potential Project to turn out women voters in the 2014 midterm elections.
Fiorina will talk about her success in the business world — from secretary to CEO — and how gender impacts the obstacles women face, according to her prepared remarks provided by her campaign.
