"In the morning, I start with the gardening. And I've discovered I still know how to crochet"

"It's not very feminist of me but I've realised it's a pleasure and not an obligation. Today men are sewing and cooking, we can't have complexes about these things. If it's done for pleasure, it's a luxury"

"The question is whether this will continue and become normal or whether it is just temporary"

"Men already had an issue with women accessing the public space, but now they are forced to remain in a space typically reserved for women, many men are struggling to accept it"

"I am shocked that in Tunisia or elsewhere, violence against women would be an issue to be relegated to the minister of women"

"We lack the collective will to redefine the family and review our priorities"

"Citizens must take charge"

"I have experienced harassment, smear campaigns, defamation, death threats and calls for my assassination"

"We didn't see a drastic shift in public opinion on women's rights, prior to this appointment"

"allowed people to say: 'Guess what, women can be just as effective as political leaders as their male counterparts"

"There has been absolutely no addition in terms of rights secured for women"
