Critical Summary - He For She Speech
Critical Summary - He For She Speech
I identify as a feminist; not meaning that I think that women are better than men,
meaning that I support gender equality. This speech had anecdotes that made me
realize that I have lived gender inequality issues. The way she persuades the audience
to support equal rights is beyond amazing. She uses facts, anecdotes and logical
solutions for solving this. I have heard this speech many times, but each time it makes
me want to do something to help this problem. She gives a kind of trusting vibe; you
know that this is real, that is happening. She tells her weaknesses and strengths for all
to understand that she is a human being, a woman. Her ideas stick within us with the
repetition she uses. She knows how to persuade an audience with language devices,
such as: rhetorical devices, logos, pathos and ethos. She is an amazing woman, in any
part of the speech you will get to question her; everything she says makes logic and is
completely true.
