Women need to be empowered through the strongest tool - education. They don't need to be subservient to anyone, but at the same time, men must change their mindset towards women.

You see, I know change
I see change
I embody change
All we do is change
Yeah, I know change

It exceeds expectations
It requires both now and then
See, although the players change
The song remains the same
And the truth is...
You gotta have the balls to change

Change is the end result of all true learning.
