A sad reality of Hillary Clinton's career advice for women is that it's all about men. How to navigate the sexist taunts that arise in the workplace, how to be less of a perfectionist (because men don't bother), and how to handle double standards surrounding appearance and dress.

The former secretary of State presented this guidance in an interview with Glamour Editor-in-Chief Cindi Leive, which will appear in full in the magazine's September issue. In it, Leive tells Clinton many young women don't want to run for office, that they think it's a blood sport, to which Clinton easily replies: It is. Below is her best advice on how to do it anyway.
