@varietymagazine: #CynthiaErivo says "the choice a woman makes to be powerful" means "constantly being misunderstood, disliked and mocked." "I think we've fallen in love with the concept of the powerful woman, but in reality, we seldom celebrate or raise up a woman when she claims her power. We want the agreeable version of powerful, the version that smiles when offended, says nothing when she disagrees." "We are happier with the theory, not so much the practice. Which means, the choice a woman makes to be powerful is a hard choice to make. It means constantly being misunderstood, being disliked and being mocked."
