The story of @nancypelosi, is, inevitably, the story of what people think of her. The way she is recognized and remembered, the way she is held to account. And so the former House Speaker doesn’t have the luxury of not caring about what people think of her: it’s the question on which her future, and the future of American politics, depends. It seems to enrage people that Pelosi feels entitled to things: money, power, respect. Of course it does–a woman is always held responsible for her reputation. @hillaryclinton, in her years running for President, was asked over and over again some version of the question, Why do you think people don’t like you? A powerful woman is always defined less by what she has done than by how she makes people feel. Pelosi, the first woman Speaker in history, isn’t humble. Many women, she thinks, are afraid to show pride and need to see an example of confidence. Besides, making sure you get your due isn’t something you can delegate. One former Pelosi aide told me everything she does is rooted in this combination of obligation and entitlement: the sense that someone ought to do something, and she is the only one who can do it. Pelosi seems to feel no need to apologize for her status in the way women are expected to and men rarely are. Perhaps the assertion of ego by a woman is the most radical act there is: the refusal to submit or be subordinate. Photograph by @gigilaub for TIME
