Freedom Quote by Rashida Jones

“I think women have been given an opportunity to exercise their independence on almost every level. We can be single forever, or mothers, or freeze our eggs, or be gay, or have a career or a family or both. I feel like men don't think they have the same number of options.” quote by Rashida Jones
