Elegid un país, el que sea: allí también hay violaciones, maltratos, asesinatos. Elegid otro país, no importa cual: allí también habrá resistencia.”

“Of the cultural causes of misogyny, rejection of or guilt about sex is the most obvious. It leads naturally to the degradation of woman as the sexual object and the projection onto her of lust and the desire to seduce, which a man must repress in himself. At the same time that he denigrated woman’s sexual function, the preoccupation with sex resulting from the attempt to repress desire is apt to make him see her exclusively as a sexual being, more lustful than man and not spiritual at all….Misogyny can also develop as a result of the idealization with which men have glorified women as mistresses, wives, and mothers. This has led to a natural reaction, a desire to tear down what has been raised unduly high.”
