Nonsense!

"Nonsense like girls walking 10 kilometres every day on empty stomachs to find water for their families; nonsense like girls denied the chance to go to school for a lifetime of cooking, cleaning and childcare; nonsense like girls thrust into marriages they’re too young to understand. . . . For over 600 million girls around the world, this nonsensical reality is their daily reality where the four walls of inequality, injustice, indignity, and ignorance close in around them, limiting their potential at a time when it should be limitless."

This is an excerpt from Her Majesty Queen Rania's speech at the "Women in the World" summit at the Hudson Theatre in New York City.  The Jordan Times reports more about the conference and Queen Rania's speech emphasizing the importance of educating girls in impoverished areas around the world.
