 Feminism is an entire world view or gestalt, not just a laundry list of women's issues. |
| Women have a lot to say about how to advance women's rights, and governments need to learn from that, listen to the movement and respond. |
| America is like an unfaithful love who promises us more than we got. |
| Sexual, racial, gender violence and other forms of discrimination and violence in a culture cannot be eliminated without changing culture. |
| I'd make a comment at a meeting and nobody would even acknowledge me. Then some man would say the same thing and they'd all nod. |
| We need women leaders. But we need them to have a vision for something. |
| As a human rights issue, the effort to end violence against women becomes a government's obligation, not just a good idea. |
| People learn to lead because they care about something. |
| There is no private domain of a person's life that is not political, and there is no political issue that is not ultimately personal. |
| What is being called the UN 'gender architecture' is more like a shack. Women need a bigger global house if equality is ever to become a reality. |
| Our very strength as lesbians lies in the fact that we are outside of patriarchy; our existence challenges its life. |
