A feminist is anyone who recognizes the equality and full humanity of women and men.

What would happen if we listened to children as much as we talked to them?

We are still in various kinds of patriarchal systems. The very definition of patriarchy is that men control women as the means of reproduction, so the idea that a woman's main role is to have children often means society wants more workers, more soldiers. The idea that how many children we have should be controlled by the family, the church, the nation - by anyone but women themselves - is still very deep and very strong.

Because I have work to care about, it is possible that I may be less difficult to get along with than other women when the double chins start to form.

Economics anxiety may be even more common than the often identified 'math anxiety,' for unlike math, which has its personal uses, economics is seen as a mysterious set of forces manipulated from above.

It's an incredible con job when you think about it, to believe something now in exchange for something after death. Even corporations with their reward systems don't try to make it posthumous.

Our children are the only people on whom we can safely take revenge for what was done to us.
