And yet, despite this portrait of a self assured woman, Cindy seemed to have a near obsession with being where everyone was and doing what everyone was doing. ~ Imbolo Mbue
Feminism Identity quotes by Imbolo Mbue
Feminism? It might change society, but it will certainly not change the man. ~ Ljupka Cvetanova
Feminism Identity quotes by Ljupka Cvetanova
You should never act against yourself. ~ Mya Robarts
Feminism Identity quotes by Mya Robarts
Why do I have to choose between being me and being somebody's wife? ~ Anna Jane Greenville
Feminism Identity quotes by Anna Jane Greenville
The naive woman tacitly agrees to remain "not knowing." Women who are gullible or those with injured instincts still, like flowers, turn in the direction of whatever sun is offered. ~ Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Feminism Identity quotes by Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Individuals who speak languages other than English, who speak patois as well as standard English, find it a necessary aspect of self-affirmation not to feel compelled to chose one voice over another, not to claim one as more authentic but rather to construct social realities that celebrate, acknowledge and affirm differences, variety. ~ Bell Hooks
Feminism Identity quotes by Bell Hooks
Although I believe identity politics '"produces limited but real empowerment for its participants," it is important to note that it contains significant problems: first, its essentialist tendency; second, its fixed _we-they_ binary position; third, its homogenization of diverse social oppression; fourth, its simplification of the complexity and paradox of being privileged and unprivileged; and fifth its ruling out of intersectional space of diverse forms of oppression in reality. ~ Namsoon Kang
Feminism Identity quotes by Namsoon Kang
Women have the right to be whatever kind of woman they want to be. Whatever kind of feminist they want to be, or not. I'm a woman writer. Some of my fiction is soft and poetic. Some of my fiction is horrifying and aggressive. My being a woman has no bearing on how I write. Or what I choose to write about. My being a woman is just my gender. It has very little to do with who I am as a person. So don't box me in or tell me how to be GIRL. It's the only thing I've figured out how to do, and I do it my way. ~ Cheryl Anne Gardner
Feminism Identity quotes by Cheryl Anne Gardner
Gingerbread
I knew I had to get out of there
before the icing cracked and they discovered
that I'm burnt around the edges,
doughy in the center,
that what they thought was sugar
is salt.

If I was a good girl,
if I could satisfy their cravings,
if every dream in my misshapen head
didn't bite, I might have stayed at the table.

Wouldn't you run, too,
from such voracious love? ~ Christine Heppermann
Feminism Identity quotes by Christine Heppermann
You and I will never live to see the day that women recover their balance. ~ Zane Grey
Feminism Identity quotes by Zane Grey
I cannot see that keeping the status quo intact would help in any way to solve the problems of inequality or suffering in this world. I would go for taking action towards change instead of accepting the inevitable. ~ Elina Juusola
Feminism Identity quotes by Elina Juusola
Lucy could see that love unconfined, love outside convention, might well make a woman an unfit mother; you were one kind of woman or another: you were good or you were bad, as the world saw it, and no stations in between. They allowed you to choose; you could be the maternal or the erotic, but not a bit of both. The latter made you forget the former. Men married the maternal and then longed for the erotic. Or they married the erotic by mistake, and set about making it into the maternal, and then were just as disappointed. ~ Fay Weldon
Feminism Identity quotes by Fay Weldon
I'm a queen with or without a king. Chasing anything is beneath me. Until you're ready to put away childish things and be my man, my king, someone I can trust to shepard my soul to the Almighty I have to decline being your wife. I love you with all my heart and soul, but my salvation, life, health, and legacy has to come first now. ~ Kierra C.T. Banks
Feminism Identity quotes by Kierra C.T. Banks
I am everything what u see and I can be anything what I want to be. ~ Nandini Sharma
Feminism Identity quotes by Nandini Sharma
We're in a period right now where nobody asks any questions about psychology. No one has any feeling for human motivation. No one talks about sexuality in terms of emotional needs and symbolism and the legacy of childhood. Sexuality has been politicized--"Don't ask any questions!" "No discussion!" "Gay is exactly equivalent to straight!" And thus in this period of psychological blindness or inertness, our art has become dull. There's nothing interesting being written--in fiction or plays or movies. Everything is boring because of our failure to ask psychological questions.

So I say there is a big parallel between Bill Cosby and Bill Clinton--aside from their initials! Young feminists need to understand that this abusive behavior by powerful men signifies their sense that female power is much bigger than they are! These two people, Clinton and Cosby, are emotionally infantile--they're engaged in a war with female power. It has something to do with their early sense of being smothered by female power--and this pathetic, abusive and criminal behavior is the result of their sense of inadequacy.


Now, in order to understand that, people would have to read my first book, "Sexual Personae"--which of course is far too complex for the ordinary feminist or academic mind! It's too complex because it requires a sense of the ambivalence of human life. Everything is not black and white, for heaven's sake! We are formed by all kinds of strange or vague memories fr ~ Camille Paglia
Feminism Identity quotes by Camille Paglia
There is
a heaviness in me
worth my weight in gold,
passed over for copper. ~ Olivia Barnes
Feminism Identity quotes by Olivia Barnes
When you travel alone, no one knows who you are, there's no predetermined idea about how you should act, you are free, and you can be your true self. Every morning you are liberated to create your identity as you truly want it to be. ~ Sean Michael Hayes
Feminism Identity quotes by Sean Michael Hayes
When we latch on to an identity, it's easy to take offence. But we offend ourselves. We lock ourselves into very rigid ways of seeing and thinking and reacting. ~ Steve Hagen
Feminism Identity quotes by Steve Hagen
I hate how I don't feel real enough unless people are watching. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Feminism Identity quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
There was a dance that everyone was doing that was heavily skewed with the power in one direction, but the dance was basically working, and then the dance got really disrupted with the first wave of feminism, and nobody found their footing yet - not the guys, not the women. ~ Amanda Palmer
Feminism Identity quotes by Amanda Palmer
I like people too much or not at all. I've got to go down deep, to fall into people, to really know them. ~ Sylvia Plath
Feminism Identity quotes by Sylvia Plath
To call the population of strangers in the midst of which we live "society" is such a usurpation that even the sociologists wonder if they should abandon a concept that was, for a century, their bread and butter. Now they prefer the metaphor of a network to describe the connection of cybernetic solitudes, the intermeshing of weak interactions under names like "colleague," "contact," "buddy," acquaintance," or "date." Such networks sometimes condense into a milieu, where nothing is shared but codes, and where nothing is played out except the incessant recomposition of identity. ~ The Invisible Committee
Feminism Identity quotes by The Invisible Committee
I don't think I could ever live with either a man or a woman for a long time. Male and female are attractive to my mind, but when it comes to the sexual act I am afraid. In every situation I need a lot of stimulation before I am conquered by the forces of passion and lust. But confusion, before and after, is the dominant factor.
I dreamed many times about a mature man with experience who would have the vigour of a boy but an adult's polished methods. Strangely enough, I also dreamed about women of my mother's age who were ideal lovers. These dreams came superimposed on one another. Sometimes the masculine element was dominant, sometimes the feminine one. At other times I wasn't sure. I saw a female body with male organs or a male body with female ones. These pictures, blended together in my mind, occasionally brought pleasure but more often pain. ~ Adam Thirlwell
Feminism Identity quotes by Adam Thirlwell
You become most powerful in whatever you do if the action is performed for its own sake rather than as a means to protect, enhance, or conform to your role identity. ~ Eckhart Tolle
Feminism Identity quotes by Eckhart Tolle
We must see what in the Israeli identity - in the Israeli - we can give to other people rather than speaking so often of taking, expanding territory. ~ A. B. Yehoshua
Feminism Identity quotes by A. B. Yehoshua
What could you have been thinking?" Iris demanded a mere moment later, advancing on Bram with her hands on her hips. "You have, in case you've forgotten, a castle filled with local Tarrytown folk, your grandmother in residence, no less, as is a young lady whose identity we were supposed to be protecting." She stopped right in front of him and actually poked him with her finger. "Why would you have chosen this particular time, and this" - she gestured to the storage room at large - "particular place to try to woo Miss Plum? A lady, if you'll recall, who we've told all those gathered is your cousin, which makes all this" - she gestured around the room again - "seem rather tawdry." "She's supposed to be a distant cousin," Bram reminded her. "And one with a wart and no teeth," Ruby added, her lips curving ever so slightly. "I don't believe you're helping my situation," Bram muttered. "Goodness, you're right. ~ Jen Turano
Feminism Identity quotes by Jen Turano
I was originally set to star in 'The Bourne Identity,' but I found it too difficult to even pretend to forget who I was. ~ Zach Braff
Feminism Identity quotes by Zach Braff
Counselling man to treat her as a slave while persuading her that she is a queen. ~ Simone De Beauvoir
Feminism Identity quotes by Simone De Beauvoir
I'm glad mainstream culture is starting to catch up to where lesbian-feminism was 30 years ago. ~ Alison Bechdel
Feminism Identity quotes by Alison Bechdel
Humanity is mediocre. The majority of women are neither superior nor inferior to the majority of
men. They are all equal. They all merit the same scorn. ~ Valentine De Saint-Point
Feminism Identity quotes by Valentine De Saint-Point
Sexuality follows fashion, which follows politics. ~ Naomi Wolf
Feminism Identity quotes by Naomi Wolf
Invitation is about being invited into a relationship where you have access to a person's life and all the vibrancy, safety, love and encouragement that reside there. To learn from the places you clearly see Jesus at work in people's lives, which you can see only by having access to them. But by accepting that invitation, you also accept the challenge that comes with it: The challenge to live into your identity as a son or daughter of the King. ~ Mike Breen
Feminism Identity quotes by Mike Breen
This is part of my heritage, my identity. Normally, people don't understand, even think it sounds stupid, but it is important to me. We were stripped of so many things. ~ Maria Elena Alonso-Sierra
Feminism Identity quotes by Maria Elena Alonso-Sierra
Marriage has for women many equivalents of joining a mass movement. It offers them a new purpose in life, a new future and a new identity (a new name). The boredom of spinsters and of women who can no longer find joy and fulfillment in marriage stems from an awareness of a barren, spoiled life. By embracing a holy cause and dedicating their energies and substance to its advancement, they find a new life full of purpose and meaning. ~ Eric Hoffer
Feminism Identity quotes by Eric Hoffer
The dictionary says my identity should be all about being separate or distinct, and yet it feels like it is so wrapped up in others. ~ Mary E. Pearson
Feminism Identity quotes by Mary E. Pearson
We are what we love. We are the things, the people, the ideas we spend our days with. They center us, they drive us, they define us to our very core.
Without them, we are empty. ~ Daisy Whitney
Feminism Identity quotes by Daisy Whitney
I feel sad that we have allowed these knee-jerk feminists who want to act like it's a struggle against men ... but again that's the least politically developed strand of feminism. ~ Bell Hooks
Feminism Identity quotes by Bell Hooks
To recount modern life one has to have characters with iPads and smart phones who take trains and planes, and to be aware how this alters consciousness, identity, and the kind of experiences people have. They are constantly exposed to contact from everyone they know and many they don't. ~ Tim Parks
Feminism Identity quotes by Tim Parks
Angry women care. Angry women speak and yell and sob their truths. ~ Roxane Gay
Feminism Identity quotes by Roxane Gay
Many in the trans community are fed up with L.G.B.T. organizations that continue to erase trans identity or just give lip service to trans issues. We need our cisgender allies - gay and straight - to treat transgender lives as if they matter, and trans people need multiple seats at the tables in the organizations that say they're interested in L.G.B.T. equality; this absence has been painful since Stonewall. ~ Laverne Cox
Feminism Identity quotes by Laverne Cox
Some of the New York Radical Women shortly afterward formed WITCH (Women's International Terrorist Conspiracy from Hell) and its members, dressed as witches, appeared suddenly on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. A leaflet put out by WITCH in New York said:
WITCH lives and smiles in every woman. She is the free part of each of us, beneath the shy smiles, the acquiescence to absurd male domination, the make-up or flesh-suffocating clothes our sick society demands. There is no "joining" WITCH. If you are a woman and dare to look within yourself, you are a WITCH. You make your own rules. ~ Howard Zinn
Feminism Identity quotes by Howard Zinn
In the midst of this utopia, which only your fellow lone voyagers would perceive, you used to transgress society's rules unknowingly, and no one would hold you accountable for it. You would mistakenly enter private residences, go to concerts to which you had not been invited, eat at community banquets where you could only guess the community's identity when they started giving speeches. Had you behaved like this in your own country, you would have been taken for a liar or a fool. But the improbable ways of a foreigner are accepted. Far from your home, you used to taste the pleasure of being mad without being alienated, of being an imbecile without renouncing your intelligence, of being an impostor without culpability. ~ Edouard Leve
Feminism Identity quotes by Edouard Leve
Though we rush ahead to save our time, we are only what we feel ~ Neil Young
Feminism Identity quotes by Neil Young
Oskar pushes away the blanket. Lies looking down at his naked body. His naked body that will give the lie to any false identity papers he manages to procure. Has anyone, he wonders, ever explained to me the significance of circumcision? Why I have had to sacrifice to God a piece of my sexual organ. ~ Glenn Haybittle
Feminism Identity quotes by Glenn Haybittle
Possible then the professor inited a little too emphatically upon the inferiority of omen, he was concerned not with their inferiority, but with his superiority. ~ Virginia Woolf
Feminism Identity quotes by Virginia Woolf
When female stories are muted, we are teaching our kids that their dignity is second class and the historical accounts of their lives [are] less relevant. This lowered value carries over when women face sexual objectification and systemic brutalization from inside and outside the community. ~ Aurin Squire
Feminism Identity quotes by Aurin Squire
Fathers of the fatherless sons and daughters, your presence will help build your children's identity. Whether you know it or not, your presence builds security and confidence, and it will produce great strides in your children's confidence and determination. ~ Charlena E. Jackson
Feminism Identity quotes by Charlena E.  Jackson
Had I not been dissociative, I never would have survived. ~ Wendy Hoffman
