Twain said she feels that women have a different experience, specifically a disadvantage, in entering not only the country music industry but also in all walks of life.
How Shania Twain broke the rules for women in country music to become a feminist iconMan! Shania Twain is still fighting for women in the industry and it does ‘impress us much.’Shania Twain became a leader in the country music industry when she took over the charts in the 90s. Today, she is still fighting for more space to allow other female artists to succeed.
"They need to almost excel beyond the average male in order to be heard, to stand out enough ... and to be recognized," she continued."A lot of that is just lack of opportunity, so we have to fight harder in order to get our opportunity."The singer shared that she feels women need to make the most of the opportunities presented to them because they can"get shut down a lot sooner, if we allow that to happen.
"I always had to fight harder as a kid -- and growing up in my adolescence -- in order to be seen, to be heard ... so it's become part of my character and my self expression," she said."I never really wanted to be the center of attention," she said."I always dreamt of being the backup singer to Stevie Wonder. That was my big dream as a singer -- and then to write incredible songs that other artists would record.
"Putting survival first, understanding -- and with more and more maturity as I went -- that the only way to succeed, and by succeeding I mean just even exist, to be seen, to be recognized, to be respected, you have to dive in and put your fears aside and you cannot let your fears get in your way," she said."This has created a very, very dynamic side of me that I otherwise may not have grown into if I didn't have the disadvantage of being female in this industry.
