Oh, NOW You Want To Protect Women?

Some men discovered women's rights this week. Unfortunately, there is required reading.

These views are mine and mine alone. I say them as a fan of this league who is fiercely protective of its players, as someone who has put my own money behind the growth of women's professional sports, and as someone who has spent a significant part of my career advocating for women and gender equity.

And I'm standing ten toes down against people using women's safety as a costume for some clout. Sit ALL the way down with your transphobia and tomfoolery. And stop making a mockery of the most successful WNBA season yet.

Ladies, stop sacrificing yourself.

Why do we reward women for giving everything up? Sanya Malhotra and I unpack one of the most deeply ingrained beliefs about womanhood.

We're taught to admire the woman who sacrifices the most. The mother who always puts herself last. The wife who always compromises. The daughter who never asks for too much. We call it strength. We call it love. We call it being a "good woman."

But what if we've been confusing self-sacrifice with self-worth?

This conversation is about unlearning. About realizing that just because something has always been expected of women doesn't mean it's right. Sometimes the bravest thing a woman can do isn't give more of herself. It's stop believing she has to.

This one might change the way you see yourself.

This episode of Shame Less With Lilly Singh is presented by my charity, Unicorn Island Fund.

Watch the full conversation with Sanya on YouTube.

My memory is less “photographic” and more “Etch A Sketch.” Sorry for forgetting your name immediately after you said it. It will happen again 🤷🏽‍♀️😩 (cc: @NellyFurtado
