Summary

This quote highlights the societal trend where as women gain strength and independence, there is a growing emphasis on professions that involve displaying oneself, such as modeling or entertainment. As women become more empowered, these professions begin to hold greater prestige, fame, and monetary value, enticing other women to aspire to similar paths. The quote implies that society elevates these professions as ideals of success for women, potentially creating an environment that emphasizes physical appearance and public visibility as markers of achievement for women.
