I do not refer to myself as a 'housewife' for the reason that I did not marry a house.

The pedestal is immobilizing and subtly insulting whether or not some women yet realize it. We must move up from the pedestal.

Every social trait labelled masculine or feminine is in truth a human trait. It is our human right to develop and contribute our talents whatever our race, sex, religion, ancestry, age. Human rights are indivisible!

Unless women have, from the moment of birth, socialization for, expectations of, and preparation for a viable significant alternative to motherhood . . . women will continue to want and reproduce too many children.

We will no longer be led only by that half of the population whose socialization, through toys, games, values and expectations, sanctions violence as the final assertion of manhood, synonymous with nationhood.

The hand that rocks the cradle should also rock the boat.
