Orthodox Feminism

Famous quotes containing the words orthodox and/or feminism:

    “If the jests that you crack have an orthodox smack,
    You may get a bland smile from these sages;
    But should it, by chance, be imported from France,
    Half-a-crown is stopped out of your wages!”
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    “I ... have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is. I only know that people call me a feminist when I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat, or a prostitute.”
