Christen Reighter challenges the gender role created for women by society that they are destined to become mothers. She openly discusses obstacles she has faced as a woman who does not want children and calls out the sexism. She also reminds women that what they do with their body is their choice and their choices are not any measurement of their worthiness as a woman.” — Emily Bashforth, “21 Inspiring/Educational TED Talks That Will Change Your Life”
