    I tell you old and young are better than tired middle-aged, nothing is so dead dead-tired, dead every way as middle-aged.

    If God is male, then male is God. The divine patriarch castrates women as long as he is allowed to live on in the human imagination.
    Mary Daly (b. 1928)

    Let every woman ask herself: “Why am I the slave of man? Why is my brain said not to be the equal of his brain? Why is my work not paid equally with his? Why must my body be controlled by my husband? Why may he take my labor in the household, giving me in exchange what he deems fit? Why may he take my children from me? Will them away while yet unborn?” Let every woman ask.
    Voltairine Decleyre (1866–1912)
