[QUOTE="DPI, post: 1954975, member: 793"] It must be my liberal bias. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says in a new interview that she cant stand whining by women who are unhappy with the work and family choices theyve made in life and complain that they have no options. Clinton, in the interview with Marie Claire, was discussing Anne-Marie Slaughter, a former director of policy planning at the State Department who left in 2011. This summer, Slaughter wrote a much-discussed cover story in the Atlantic - Why Women Still Cant Have It all - about leaving her job because of the difficulty of balancing her work at State with the needs of her two teenage boys. I cant stand whining, Clinton told Marie Claire. I cant stand the kind of paralysis that some people fall into because theyre not happy with the choices theyve made. You live in a time when there are endless choices Money certainly helps, and having that kind of financial privilege goes a long way, but you dont even have to have money for it. But you have to work on yourself Do something! Clinton added, Some women are not comfortable working at the pace and intensity you have to work at in these jobs Other women dont break a sweat They have four or five, six kids. Theyre highly organized, they have very supportive networks. (See also: PHOTOS: Hillary Clinton's style) Slaughter, who is now a professor at Princeton University, is traveling and couldnt immediately respond to a request for comment. Clinton wasnt totally unsympathetic toward issues raised her former employee. Its important for our workplaces to be more flexible and creative in enabling women to continue to do high-stress jobs while caring for not only children, but [also] aging parents, Clinton said. In the Marie Claire interview, Clinton also said once again that she has no desire to run for president in 2016.
