Why the world needs more wicked women: Angelina Jolie
Speaking on the most important lesson she’s teaching her girls, the amazing role interpreter noted that she wants them to have strong, independent minds
Angelina Jolie has said there’s need for more women who won’t give up their voice and rights, describing such women as ‘Wicked Women’
The veteran actress, in an interview with Elle U.K, re-echoed her role in upcoming movie, ‘Maleficent: Mistress of Evil’, where she starred as the villainous Maleficent and displayed severe wickedness in the movie.
44-year-old Angelina spoke on her role and advocated that ‘wicked women’ are supposed to be admired and respected because of their boldness in standing up for what they believe in, regardless of the consequences.
“Looking across the world, we have to ask, Why is so much energy expended to keep women in a secondary position? Looked at in this light, ‘wicked women’ are just women who are tired of injustice and abuse,” she explained.
The mother of six added that, “Women who refuse to follow rules and codes they don’t believe are best for themselves or their families. Women who won’t give up on their voice and rights, even at the risk of death or imprisonment or rejection by their families and communities. If that is wickedness, then the world needs more wicked women.”
Speaking on the most important lesson she’s teaching her girls, the amazing role interpreter noted that she wants them to have strong, independent minds. “I often tell my daughters that the most important thing they can do is to develop their minds,” she said.
“You can always put on a pretty dress, but it doesn’t matter what you wear on the outside if your mind isn’t strong. There is nothing more attractive – you might even say enchanting – than a woman with an independent will and her own opinions.”
