Chimanda Adichie and Hillary Clinton discuss about Clinton’s “Wife” Twitter Bio<\/h3>\n

Chimamanda Adichie, Nigeria’s foremost female writer and feminist, was recently in an interview with Hillary Clinton. During their talk session, the writer questioned the politician on her reasons for having a Twitter Bio that starts with “Wife”. Their conversation goes thus:<\/p>\n

Chimamanda\u00a0said:<\/p>\n

“In your Twitter\u00a0account, the first word that describes you is \u2018Wife.\u2019 And then I think it\u2019s \u2018Mom,\u2019 and then it\u2019s \u2018Grandmother’. And when I saw that, I have to confess that I felt just a little bit upset. And then I went and I looked at your husband\u2019s Twitter account, and the first word was not \u2018husband.”<\/p>\n

Hillary Clinton : “When you put it like that, I\u2019m going to change it”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Quoting Barbara Bush, Hillary Clinton said:<\/p>\n

“She said, you know, at the end of the day, it won\u2019t matter if you got a raise, it won\u2019t matter if you wrote a great book, if you are not also someone who values relationships.”<\/p>\n

Furthermore Clinton said:<\/p>\n

“It shouldn\u2019t be either\/or. It should be that if you are someone who is defining yourself by what you do and what you accomplish, and that is satisfying, then more power to you. That is how you should be thinking about your life, and living it. If you are someone who primarily defines your life in relationship to others, then more power to you, and live that life the way Barbara Bush lived that life, and how proud she was to do it.<\/p>\n

But I think most of us as women in today\u2019s world end up in the middle. Wanting to have relationships, wanting to invest in them, nurture them, but also pursuing our own interests.”<\/p>\n
