Could listen to her speak for days! Such an intellectual and passionate person
She's very intelligent. I don't agree with every opinion of hers but I admire her ability to stand strong on her beliefs.

As a father of two growing girls, I love listening to your views on all things, religion, sexuality, girls and science, politics, etc. I think is a refreshing take on things and thanks for being an inspiration to our young women. I wish you would put out a podcast I love your KZread videos but would love to listen to longer conversations on your views and ideas on different topics.

She became my favorite feminist with this talk because: 1) she values modesty and socially conservatism while supporting female rights; she didn't once hate or put down men; and she didn't once mention that she was a victim (in fact, quite the contrary); and did not impose hew views/values on other women.

I like her, too. But what if she had been a victim and had mentioned that. What's WRONG with mentioning when you've been a victim so that other women can learn from your experience? Why do we have to hide victimhood?
I have a huge respect for Drª and actress Mayim Bialik
Great to see a woman using her celebrity to advocate femininity and self-discovery at an early age, when girls tend to be attracted to the "glamour" of fame.

I love her nervous smile or maybe its a "not again" smile when as someone who cares so much about language is continually told shes and actress before a neuro-scientist.
I totally understand how Mayim felt at 12, speaking like an adult. I was told, when I was 10, by another 10-year-old girl, that I talked like a 40-year-old. She told me as my mother drove her home from Girl Scouts and my mother laughed, but it was true, and it was part of the reason why I didn't get along with my peer group. I'm also in a wheelchair and walked with crutches then, so I was very different as a child, and can relate to that.

Yes, mostly because if you're at all smart and show it in any way as a female, you'll probably get your a** handed to you by everyone else.
I can relate to her totally...She's interesting, truthful, and funny. I just was amazed at all the topics & her honest answers& questions that come up,like the movie the little mermaid,compared to the original Hans Christian Andersons version. I laugh out loud ,hearing her thoughts, great humor! !!!

I’m a late bloomer, it’s a huge blessing growing up.
I am absolutely in love with Mayim as I listen to this! Clearly, she is my spirit animal. As a fellow late bloomer who has an ongoing interest in "being human" as a whole, I want to pick this book up and immerse myself in it, if only to add to my science knowledge to backup some of my beliefs and observations. She is also inspiring me to really do some more serious writing about my observations as a whole on the human condition. ;) Honestly, she just delightful and full of nerd-humor -- something we need more of in our lives.
This woman is so interesting to listen to
I love how she is both liberal and conservative in almost the identical way that I am.
She's a Lovely lady!.Thank you.

Mayim, I am totally aligned with you that most societal labels don't make sense when it comes to who we are as individuals, even within a group. Humans are complex and we are each different, which makes it even more complex. We must each stand for being our own brand of unique without being forced to fit into a stereotypical label cos it makes someone else more comfortable. I believe each human must be prepared to wear many hats all at once, metaphorically speaking - us humans must dare to be that complex to truly live, enjoy life, exercise excellent discernment, follow our inner core voice and logic to make good decisions.
I need this book now!
Really like the way she expresses points enthusiastically, very intelligent lady!

I knew you were a talented Actress, Mayim, but since I started watching your videos, I'm even more impressed. I'm a Feminist too. I'm 68 years old. My Mother was an 11 year old Suffragette. My Great-Grandfather was an Orthodox Rabbi, an immigrant too. My Father's Mother's Father.. My Mother was Irish, so I'm raised Catholic. But I feel the presence of God, in the personal, interactive, one to one, Jewish, way. I was approached to write too. I said no thanks, you remember the last time we did this, in NJ. Turns out I've been blogging for 10 years now. Long story.

Incredible! I’d love to listen to your story!
How does she mix being an Orthodox Jew with being a supporter of the LGBT community? Wouldn't that immediately classify her as reformed? As far as I know (and I'm clearly no expert) LGBT people may be included, but sex between two people of the same gender would still be considered against the Jewish law, is that what she believes? If someone could tell me what I'm missing here, that would be great lol.

My take would be that she is a cultural Jew so strongly embedded with Orthodox Jews that she calls herself Othodox out of solidarity but really she isn't.

She is NOT Orthodox! She calls herself "conservadox," describing the belief system of embracing aspects of conservative Jewish thought and practice with progressive views on feminism, race, food(vegan) and living. SHe embraces certain ceremonial and practice areas that mean something to her, and her family, but also has her own views on these issues. In no way would she ever embrace a clear and didactic belief system which excludes her own feelings on these issues. She does, however, find "god's" presence in many aspects of Jewish practice, including conservative and orthodox belief and practice systems.For example, she embraces modesty, not as a judgment on a belief that women are "tempting" but as an embrace of her right to privacy of her own body, and in a feminist way. So don't be so stupid and narrow, in your intellect, to exclude the finer thought and belief systems refined by someone who actually explores why she believes certain things instead of embracing flat belief systems that exclude intellect and thought.
Agape!

She should go into politics! At least she has not only the power but (and here is where it differs to the current president) the personality, the brains and the education. Which should be required for such a position.

I loved you in Beaches and have the musical sound track. Was that your voice? I was bowled away by you in that movie. I'm not sure why there's a question about calling a female, 'girl'. As I understand it, today, a person is an adult at 18, so if you are 18 or over, you are called a woman, before that, a girl. I do refer to myself as an old girl, sometimes, so it can be used in fun ways, if no harm is intended. That's the rub. Is harm intended?

There were no men in the audience? I think all the questions came from girls ( just kidding). The book is good as a gift for young girls but is good for women to read? We still may have none-scientific notions about being a girl, prejudice, etc
THIS IS OUT VOICR
So smart... IQ and EQ and beautifully flawed.
Mayim Bialik is a bad girl chick.

What are you talking about?.... Her book is about helping girls feel comfortable with whatever level of feminine or masculine characteristic they have and that it's ok for a girl not to be girly. You clearly weren't paying attention. And why are you taking a positive message for girls (and for anyone raising a daughter) and make it about men? Nobody has a problem with a man writing a book about helping boys grow into men.

The book would probably be "Boy-ing up: How to be strong, smart and spectacular" and I think then it would be less sexist towards boys than telling them just to be strong. Fixed it?
