What does she mean?

On womanhood:
I look at my mother and the way she has loved my father through his pain, and I look at my grandmothers and what they've been through—the three of them are like a trifecta of strength. Health, happiness, love—these are the things that are at the heart of a great lady, I think. That's the kind of lady I want to be. You know, I never thought I'd say this, but isn't it time to take off the corsets? As someone who loves them, I think it's time to take them off.

Someone enlighten me :madge:

She's talking about the first feminist movement where women rebelled against society by ditching the corsets they were expected to wear.

I think she is implying that she cares more about being happy, healthy and loving than trying to live up to the corset of ideas that society tries to squeeze her into.
