“To do so is condescending to that group, we don't hold them up to the same moral standard to which we hold ourselves, and it is grossly unfair to the women, who are simply being told that because they are tribal women, or whatever, they do not enjoy the same guarantees of liberty that other women do.”

“La resolución del conflicto entre mujeres blancas y negras no dará comienzo hasta que todas las mujeres acepten que un movimiento feminista racista y clasista es una farsa, una tapadera para el sometimiento continuado de las mujeres a los principios patriarcales y la aceptación pasiva del statu quo. La sororidad necesaria para librar la revolución feminista solo se conseguirá cuando todas las mujeres se zafen de la hostilidad, los celos y la competencia mutua que nos ha llevado a ser vulnerables, débiles e incapaces de imaginar nuevas realidades. Esa sororidad no puede forjarse solo con palabras. Es el resultado de un crecimiento y un cambio continuados. Es un objetivo que alcanzar, un proceso de transformación. Y ese proceso empieza por la acción, por el rechazo personal de cada mujer a aceptar ningún conjunto de mitos, estereotipos y falsas suposiciones que niegan los elementos comunes y compartidos de su experiencia humana, que la privan de la capacidad para experimentar la unidad de toda la vida, que le niegan la capacidad para cerrar las brechas creadas por el racismo, el sexismo o el clasismo y que le niegan la capacidad de cambiar. El proceso empieza por la aceptación personal de cada mujer de que a las mujeres estadounidenses, a todas sin excepción, se las socializa para que sean racistas, clasistas y sexistas, en diversos grados, y por entender que calificarnos de feministas no cambia el hecho de que debemos esforzarnos de manera consciente por desembarazarnos del legado de socialización negativa.”

“The problem was the companies that sold shitty sanitary pads. Otherwise reasonable adults who believed tampons stole a girl's virginity. Doctors who didn't bother to solve common problems. Birth control that could kill you. Boys who were told that they couldn't control themselves. A society that couldn't handle the fact that roughly half of all humans will menstruate.”
