Feminist

Famous quotes containing the word feminist:

“Fat is a social disease, and fat is a feminist issue.”
—Susie Orbach (b. 1946)

“The formation of an oppositional world view is necessary for feminist struggle. This means that the world we have most intimately known, the world in which we feel “safe” ... must be radically changed. Perhaps it is the knowledge that everyone must change, not just those we label enemies or oppressors, that has so far served to check our revolutionary impulses.”
—Bell (c. 1955)

“People call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat or a prostitute.”
