![I don't believe rape is inevitable or natural. If I did, I would have no reason to be here. If I did, my political practice would be different than it is. Have you ever wondered why we [women] are not just in armed combat against you? It's not because there's a shortage of kitchen knives in this country. It is because we believe in your humanity, against all the evidence Picture Quote #1](https://img.picturequotes.com/2/24/23755/23755.webp "I don't believe rape is inevitable or natural.

Text Quotes
Prejudice is a disease. And when they come for you, or refuse your worth, I will be ready for their stones. I belong to you (Use Quotes)
Do not allow people to dim your shine because they are blinded. Tell them to put on some sunglasses, cuz we were born this way bitch! (Use Quotes)
A girl's got to use what she's given and I'm not going to make a guy drool the way a Britney video does. So I take it to extremes. I don't say I dress sexily on stage - what I do is so extreme. It's meant to make guys think: ‘I don't know if this is sexy or just weird (Use Quotes)
Because if we're on the road to hell, we're going to dance the whole damn way and give them something to talk about when we're gone (Use Quotes)
Believe when others doubt. Work when others refuse. Stay when others quit and you will win when others lose (Use Quotes)
Feminism is hated because women are hated. Anti-feminism is a direct expression of misogyny; it is the political defense of women hating (Use Quotes)
Marriage as an institution developed from rape as a practice. Rape, originally defined as abduction, became marriage by capture. Marriage meant the taking was to extend in time, to be not only use of but possession of, or ownership (Use Quotes)
Undernourished, intelligence becomes like the bloated belly of a starving child: swollen, filled with nothing the body can use (Use Quotes)
Pornography is used in rape - to plan it, to execute it, to choreograph it, to engender the excitement to commit the act (Use Quotes)
The pornographers actually use our bodies as their language. We are their speech.... Protecting what they 'say' means protecting what they do to us, how they do it. It means protecting their sadism on our bodies, because that is how they write: not like a writer at all; like a torturer (Use Quotes)
Men characterize pornography as something mental because their minds, their thoughts, their dreams, their fantasies, are more real to them than women's bodies or lives; in fact, men have used their social power to characterize a $10-billion-a-year trade in women as fantasy (Use Quotes)
Pornography incarnates male supremacy. It is the DNA of male dominance. Every rule of sexual abuse, every nuance of sexual sadism, every highway and byway of sexual exploitation, is encoded in it (Use Quotes)
Just remember: I love you, and love yourselves. 'cause, little monsters, you were born that way baby (Use Quotes)
Writers take words seriously-perhaps the last professional class that does-and they struggle to steer their own through the crosswinds of meddling editors and careless typesetters and obtuse and malevolent reviewers into the lap of the ideal reader (Use Quotes)
Wild intelligence abhors any narrow world; and the world of women must stay narrow, or the woman is an outlaw. No woman could be Nietzsche or Rimbaud without ending up in a whorehouse or lobotomized (Use Quotes)
Who's to say I'm not an entirely different person? Because I am. You have to understand, five years ago I was a waitress (Use Quotes)
Women are an enslaved population - the crop we harvest is children, the fields we work are houses. Women are forced into committing sexual acts with men that violate integrity because the universal religion - contempt for women - has as its first commandment that women exist purely as sexual fodder for men (Use Quotes)
Sexism is the foundation on which all tyranny is built. Every social form of hierarchy and abuse is modeled on male-over-female domination (Use Quotes)
Woman is not born: she is made. In the making, her humanity is destroyed. She becomes symbol of this, symbol of that: mother of the Earth, slut of the universe; but she never becomes herself because it is forbidden for her to do so (Use Quotes)
To permit writers to use forms which violate convention just might permit writers to develop forms which would teach people to think differently: not to think about different things, but to think in different ways (Use Quotes)
Many women, I think, resist feminism because it is an agony to be fully conscious of the brutal misogyny which permeates culture, society, and all personal relationships (Use Quotes)
I don't believe rape is inevitable or natural. If I did, I would have no reason to be here. If I did, my political practice would be different than it is. Have you ever wondered why we [women] are not just in armed combat against you? It's not because there's a shortage of kitchen knives in this country. It is because we believe in your humanity, against all the evidence (Use Quotes)
The intelligence of women is not out in the world, acting on its own behalf; it is kept small, inside the home, acting on behalf of another. This is true even when the woman works outside the home, because she is segregated into women's work, and her intelligence does not have the same importance as the lay of her ass (Use Quotes)
When I look at my old pictures, all I can see is what I used to be but am no longer. I think: What I can see is what I am not (Use Quotes)
I loved you because there was no other place for me to go. We were married because we did not know what else to do with each other. You never knew me, nothing about me, what died inside me, what lived invisibly (Use Quotes)
The writer does not dare dream of giving the best of his individuality. No, he must never express his anger. The vacillating demands of mediocrity must be satisfied. Amuse the people, be their clown, give them platitudes about which they can laugh, shadows of truth which they can hold as truths (Use Quotes)
Displacement results in a tenuous relationship with the past, with the self that used to exist and operate in a different place, where the qualities that constituted us were in no need of negotiation. Immigration is an ontological crisis because you are forced to negotiate the conditions of your self-hood under perpetually changing existential circumstances (Use Quotes)
The hopeless hope is one of the early harbingers of spring, bespeaking an innocent belief that the world might right its wrongs and reverse its curses simply because the trees are coming into leaf (Use Quotes)
When learned men begin to use their reason, then I generally discover that they haven’t got any (Use Quotes)
The cafeteria in the Chicago's Children's Memorial Hospital basement was the saddest place in the world-and forever it shall be-with its grim neon lights and gray tabletops and the diffuse foreboding of those who stepped away from suffering children to have a grilled cheese sandwich (Use Quotes)
