Pearl Jam doesn’t just sing about issues they care about. These guys walk it like they talk it Picture Quote #1

The problem for all women is we’re identified by how we look instead of by our heads and our hearts Picture Quote #1

Obviously, there is much similarity among the challenges of transgender people and all women - from health care to harassment to discrimination in the workplace Picture Quote #1

The AIDS crisis has brought us a consciousness of the immune system as the most important health-maintenance element, and a consciousness of how it is under attack Picture Quote #1

The family is the basic cell of government: it is where we are trained to believe that we are human beings or that we are chattel, it is where we are trained to see the sex and race divisions and become callous to injustice even if it is done to ourselves, to accept as biological a full system of authoritarian government Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

By the year 2000 we will, I hope, raise our children to believe in human potential, not God Picture Quote #1

Pornography is the instruction. Rape is the practice, battered women are the practice, and battered children are the practice Picture Quote #1

Even when educators survey grade school texts and create new bibliographies to help teachers include Asians, Eskimos, and other Americans, females in and out of those groups may be downplayed or forgotten Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Before feminism, work was largely defined as what men did or would do. Thus, a working woman was someone who labored outside the home for money, masculine-style Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Childbirth is more admirable than conquest, more amazing than self-defense, and as courageous as either one Picture Quote #1

Clearly no one knows what leadership has gone undiscovered in women of all races, and in black and other minority men Picture Quote #1

For much of the female half of the world, food is the first signal of our inferiority. It lets us know that our own families may consider female bodies to be less deserving, less needy, less valuable Picture Quote #1

God may be in the details, but the goddess is in the questions. Once we begin to ask them, there's no turning back Picture Quote #1

Happy or unhappy, families are all mysterious. We have only to imagine how differently we would be described - and will be, after our deaths - by each of the family members who believe they know us Picture Quote #1

I have yet to hear a man ask for advice on how to combine marriage and a career Picture Quote #1

I'd like to be played as a child by Natalie Wood. I'd have some romantic scenes as Audrey Hepburn and have gritty black-and-white scenes as Patricia Neal Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

If you say, I'm for equal pay, that's a reform. But if you say. I'm a feminist, that's a transformation of society Picture Quote #1

It's an incredible con job when you think about it, to believe something now in exchange for something after death. Even corporations with their reward systems don't try to make it posthumous Picture Quote #1

Power can be taken, but not given. The process of the taking is empowerment in itself Picture Quote #1

The first problem for all of us, men and women, is not to learn, but to unlearn Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

A movement is only composed of people moving. To feel its warmth and motion around us is the end as well as the means Picture Quote #1

Any woman who chooses to behave like a full human being should be warned that the armies of the status quo will treat her as something of a dirty joke. That's their natural and first weapon. She will need her sisterhood Picture Quote #1
