We live in a true chaos of contradicting authorities, an age of conformism without community, of proximity without communication.

Man is jealous because of his amour propre; woman is jealous because of her lack of it.

Womanpower means the self determination of women, and that means all the baggage of paternalistic society will have to be thrown overboard.

I do think that women could make politics irrelevant; by a kind of spontaneous cooperative action the like of which we have never seen; which is so far from people’s ideas of state structure or viable social structure that it seems to them like total anarchy — when what it really is, is very subtle forms of interrelation that do not follow some heirarchal pattern which is fundamentally patriarchal. The opposite to patriarchy is not matriarchy but fraternity, yet I think it’s women who are going to have to break this spiral of power and find the trick of cooperation.

The occupational hazard of being a Playboy Bunny is the aching facial muscles brought on by obligatory smiles.

So far it has been assumed that the only pregnancies which are aborted are accidental ones and the only foetuses destroyed those whose mothers could not bear the thought of their becoming children. In a just world this would be the case, but the world is far from just. Too many women are forced to abort by poverty, by their menfolk, by their parents. Poverty has many faces; it may be the poverty of the young, the unmarried, the student, the unemployed, the female or a combination of these.

Women have very little idea of how much men hate them.
