Law and justice are not always the same.
Liberation does not come from outside.
If the shoe doesn't fit, must we change the foot?
Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.
Monotheism makes me grouchy. I don't trust any religion that makes God look like one of the ruling class. I guess I'm a pagan or an animist.
I have yet to hear a man ask for advice on how to combine marriage and a career.
A liberated woman is one who has sex before marriage and a job after.
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.
I was never against marriage per se. Before feminism, I didn't think you had any choice. In fact, for a long time I always assumed I would get married. I just didn't see any marriages I wanted to emulate, so I kept putting it off.
A pedestal is as much a prison as any small, confined space.
