If we show emotion, we¡¯re called dramatic.
If we want to play against men, we¡¯re nuts.
And if we dream of equal opportunity, delusional.
When we stand for something, we¡¯re unhinged.
When we¡¯re too good there¡¯s something wrong with us.
And if we get angry¡¦
we¡¯re hysterical, irrational or just being crazy.
But, a woman running a marathon is crazy.
Officials tried to pull her off the course.
A woman boxing was crazy.
A woman dunking, crazy.
Coaching an NBA team, crazy.
A woman competing in a hijab
Changing her sport
Landing a double cork 1080
Or winning 23 grand slams,
having a baby and then coming back for more.
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy and crazy
So if they want to call you crazy, fine.
Show them what crazy can do.
