April 7, 2006 at 5:03 pm | In Uncategorized |“I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is; I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat”
Rebecca West (English Writer, 1892-1983)
“My idea of feminism is self-determination, and it’s very open-ended: every woman has the right to become herself, and do whatever she needs to do.”
Ani Difranco (American Singer, Song Writer and Guitarist. b.1970)
“Women have been taught that, for us, the earth is flat, and that if we venture out, we will fall off the edge. Some of us have ventured out nevertheless, and so far we have not fallen off. It is my faith, my feminist faith, that we will not.”
Andrea Dworkin
“It’s important to remember that feminism is no longer a group of organizations or leaders. It’s the expectations that parents have for their daughters, and their sons, too. It’s the way we talk about and treat one another. It’s who makes the money and who makes the compromises and who makes the dinner. It’s a state of mind. It’s the way we live now.”
Anna Quindlen (American bestselling Author and Journalist, b.1953)
“Feminism is the radical notion that women are people”
