Women are only half responsible for children. Men raise children as much as women do. Until men are as nurturing as women are, and until women are as active outside the home as men are, we won't have democratic families, and therefore we won't have democracy, and we will continue this hierarchical notion of life.

Looking at traditional marriages, it seems the surest way for a woman to be alone is to get married.

Someone once asked me why women don't gamble as much as men do and I gave the commonsensical reply that we don't have as much money. That was a true but incomplete answer. In fact, women's total instinct for gambling is satisfied by marriage.

If men started taking care of children, the job will become more valuable.

It doesn't matter where we begin the personal/political circle, but it matters desperately that we complete it.

Elephants are so wise and so funny and so endangered and so intelligent. I just think there is a lot to learn from them.
