I think, when I was a young lawyer starting out, I was so determined to prove that I was as good as the men and that I could be given the same opportunities as the men, and it wouldn't make any difference at all that I was a woman. But actually, looking back on it now, I did do things that I wouldn't recommend to other women at all.
I have no problem with saying I am a socialist or with saying I'm a feminist. That's how I was when I was 15, and you know, I haven't grown out of it and probably never will.
I've learned when to speak out. You do have to learn when to bide your time and when to speak out, and I don't always get it right.
As long as young people feel they have got no hope but to blow themselves up you are never going to make progress.
