Men rise through the ranks because of potential, but women have to prove themselves - while trying to have children and having no family leave.
Reese WitherspoonRealizing you're not anything special to the kids is always a great sort of reminder that you're just a regular person. A regular embarrassing old mom.
Reese WitherspoonI have a history, a long history of being stereotyped as a five-foot-two woman, which is very limiting. I've worked so hard to create characters that have dignity. And I think everybody knows that I have a very pro-woman message in my work - and in my life.

Reese WitherspoonI'm not a politician, She says evenly. If I want to be one, I'll run for office. Susan Sarandon, whom I know and love, is a fantastic actress. It's her right as an American to say whatever she wants. [But] just because you're rich and famous doesn't qualify you to make political statements. I don't put my opinions out there to influence people. You have alot of influence. And sometimes I feel it's undeserved influence.
