I know that some endeavor to throw the mantle of romance over the subject and treat woman like some ideal existence, not liable to the ills of life. Let those deal in fancy who have nothing better to...

Ernestine Rose
I know that some endeavor to throw the mantle of romance over the subject and treat woman like some ideal existence, not liable to the ills of life. Let those deal in fancy who have nothing better to deal in; we have to do with sober, sad realities, with stubborn facts.

Ellen Barkin
I'm not limited by my gender, and I don't think anyone else should be either. Because I am the age I am and I sort of rode the crest of the first profound post-suffragette feminists, I wasn't fighting to burn my bra. Those women fought that fight just seconds before I came into womanhood.

The woman who thinks she can choose femininity, can toy with it like the social drinker toys with wine - well, she's asking for it, asking to be undone, devoured, asking to spend her life perpetrating...

Rachel Cusk
The woman who thinks she can choose femininity, can toy with it like the social drinker toys with wine - well, she's asking for it, asking to be undone, devoured, asking to spend her life perpetrating a new fraud, manufacturing a new fake identity, only this time it's her equality that's fake.

Simone de Beauvoir
One is not born a woman - one becomes one.

Colleen Chen Dysmorphic...
Oh, she breathed. How silly I've been. How silly we've all been, said another of the wives. We shouldn't be fighting each other. Our problems don't lie in any of the relationships we have with each other. The problem is our entire social system, chimed in another.

Annastacia Dickerson
For me, the times that I dressed provocatively had been empowering. It felt good. It's those times that I felt comfortable in my own skin. Like really, really comfortable. And let's face it, body self-esteem issues are a hurdle many women struggle to overcome. So when a person tears a woman down for how she's dressed, they are tearing her down at a moment she feels at the top of her game. That's where the real shame is — not in how a woman is dressed, but in the desire to diminish her self-worth and empowerment. That's not kind, or well meaning. It's rude and cruel.

I ask no favor for my sex. All I ask of our brethren is that they take their feet off our necks.

Sarah Grimké
I ask no favor for my sex. All I ask of our brethren is that they take their feet off our necks.

Under the whole "personal is political" motto of feminism, I feel that personal kindness, treating people decently, is political - is punk.

I will keep writing about these intersections as a writer and a teacher, as a black woman, as a bad feminist, until I no longer feel like what I want is impossible. I no longer want to believe that...

Roxane Gay Bad Feminist
I will keep writing about these intersections as a writer and a teacher, as a black woman, as a bad feminist, until I no longer feel like what I want is impossible. I no longer want to believe that these problems are too complex for us to make sense of them.

Kiersten White And I Darken
But there are many ways to be powerful. There is power in stillness. There is power in watching, waiting, saying the right thing at the right time to the right person. There is power in being a woman - - - oh yes, power in these bodies you gaze upon with derision.

Ashton Applewhite This Chair...
Women not only bear the burden of societal expectations surrounding beauty and youth, but they also perpetuate these standards themselves—every time we dye our hair to hide gray or downplay our age, or opt for plastic surgery to conceal the signs of aging.

This is an important book, the critic assumes, because it deals with war. This is an insignificant book because it deals with the feelings of women in a drawing-room.

Steven Pinker How the Mind...
The Darwinian approach to sex is often attacked as being antifeminist, but that is just wrong. Indeed, the accusation is baffling on the face of it, especially to the many feminist women who have developed and tested the theory. The core of feminism is surely the goal of ending sexual discrimination and exploitation, an ethical and political position that is in no danger of being refuted by any foreseeable scientific theory or discovery.
