How To Speak Woman | Alexandra Petri | TEDxBaltimore
The metaphorical manual for transformation of a woman from person-mode to lady mode is exposed, illuminating fashion instructions, speech decorum, expectations of silence, and forced little accommodations for the comfort of men. Thus develops a second language, "woman in a meeting.” Recorded at TEDxBaltimore January 2016.
