Text Quotes
For women... Bras, panties, bathing suits, and other stereotypical gear are visual reminders of a commercial, idealized feminine image that our real and diverse female bodies can't possibly fit. Without these visual references, each individual woman's body demands to be accepted on its own terms. We stop being comparatives. We begin to be unique  (About Women Quotes) Pornography is the instruction. Rape is the practice, battered women are the practice, and battered children are the practice  (About Women Quotes) Many ideas have been transformed by adding one crucial adjective - womens bank, womens music, womens studies, women's caucus. That adjective did more than change a phrase. It implied a lot of new content: child care, flexible work hours, new standards of creditworthiness, new symbolism, new lyrics  (About Women Quotes) Because I have work to care about, it is possible that I may be less difficult to get along with than other women when the double chins start to form  (About Women Quotes) Clearly no one knows what leadership has gone undiscovered in women of all races, and in black and other minority men  (About Women Quotes) I've yet to be on a campus where most women weren't worrying about some aspect of combining marriage, children, and a career. I've yet to find one where many men were worrying about the same thing  (About Women Quotes) No man can call himself liberal, or radical, or even a conservative advocate of fair play, if his work depends in any way on the unpaid or underpaid labor of women at home, or in the office  (About Women Quotes) Unless we include a job as part of every citizen's right to autonomy and personal fulfillment, women will continue to be vulnerable to someone else's idea of what need is  (About Women Quotes) If women are supposed to be less rational and more emotional at the beginning of our menstrual cycle when the female hormone is at its lowest level, then why isn't it logical to say that, in those few days, women behave the most like the way men behave all month long?  (About Women Quotes) I have met brave women who are exploring the outer edge of human possibility, with no history to guide them, and the courage to make themselves vulnerable that I find moving beyond words  (About Women Quotes) As the little boy said when asked if he wanted to be a lawyer like his mother, Oh no, that's women's work. Logic has nothing to do with oppression  (About Women Quotes) Someone once asked me why women don't gamble as much as men do, and I gave the common-sensical reply that we don't have as much money. That was a true but incomplete answer. In fact, women's total instinct for gambling is satisfied by marriage  (About Women Quotes) Women fear endangering men's approval so much, we don't even wait for them to say no. Or else we protect them, even if it means saying no to ourselves  (About Women Quotes) Battered women is a phrase that uncovered major, long-hidden violence. It helps us to face the fact that, statistically speaking, the most dangerous place for a woman is in her own home, not in the streets  (About Women Quotes) As wise women and men in every culture tell us: The art of life is not controlling what happens to us, but using what happens to us  (About Women Quotes) The nineteenth-century wave of feminism was started by older women who had been through the radicalizing experience of getting married and becoming the legal chattel of their husbands (or the equally radicalizing experience of not getting married and being treated as spinsters)  (About Women Quotes) Men were valued by what they did, women by how they looked and then by what their husbands did, and all of life was arranged (or so we thought) from the outside in  (About Women Quotes) Women can be vivacious. We are allowed more varieties of facial expression and gestures. Men must be rocklike  (About Women Quotes) It still may take some explaining, but many more women are keeping their birth names (and not calling them maiden names, with all the sexual double standard that implies)  (About Women Quotes) Perhaps well-to-do women and unemployed ghetto teenagers have something in common. Neither group has been allowed to develop the self-confidence that comes from knowing you can support yourselves  (About Women Quotes) The uncomfortable truth seems to be that the amount of talk by women has been measured less against the amount of men's talk than against the expectation of female silence  (About Women Quotes) Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must - at that moment - become the center of the universe  (About Women Quotes) In less enlightened times, the best way to impress women was to own a hot car. But women wised up and realized it was better to buy their own hot cars so they wouldn't have to ride around with jerks  (About Women Quotes) Women are treated differently by society for exactly the same reason that children and the mentally handicapped are treated differently  (About Women Quotes) America's finest - our men and women in uniform, are a force for good throughout the world, and that is nothing to apologize for  (About Women Quotes) The women of the poorer classes make sacrifices, and run risks, and bear privations, and exercise patience and kindness to a degree that the world never knows of, and would scarcely believe even if it did know  (About Women Quotes) One might almost fear, writes a thoughtful woman, seeing how the women of to-day are lightly stirred up to run after some new fashion or faith, that heaven is not so near to them as it was to their mothers and grandmothers  (About Women Quotes) Courage is by no means incompatible with tenderness. On the contrary, gentleness and tenderness have been found to characterize the men, no less than the women, who have done the most courageous deeds  (About Women Quotes) The best school of discipline is home. Family life is God's own method of training the young, and homes are very much as women make them  (About Women Quotes) If I were a girl, I'd despair. The supply of good women far exceeds that of the men who deserve them  (About Women Quotes)
