She uses her speech to demonstrate her audience and the international press the actual position of the women in Germany in contrast to the alleged oppressed women shown in the press. For her there is not only a national renaissance but also no differences of the sexes. Furthermore she gave examples as German women primarily need to take care of women, which means there are a lot of courses, schools and possibilities for women to fulfill themselfs.
