Quote by Kate Manne

“Hope, to me, is a belief that the future will be brighter, which I continue not to set much store in. But the idea of fighting for a better world—and, equally importantly, fighting against backsliding—is not a belief; it’s a political commitment that I can get on board with.”

“Feminism and other ideologies have seeped into the modern psyche, affecting how we view relationships. Instead of seeing each other as humans, partners, or soulmates—people who support one another through low points and show genuine care—we’re quick to label our partners at the first hint of an "ism." From there, things tend to spiral. A marriage should be about being true life partners, setting aside social politics, which have no place in a relationship.”

“I don’t have a gender. I’ve no intention of having a gender. I don’t do masculinity which is the behavior of male dominance, and I don’t do femininity which is the behavior of female subordination, women’s subordination. I hope to engage in human behavior and I hope at some point in the future everybody will be able to do that too, but gender I definitely do not have. I am a conscientious objector to gender as I would be indeed to being drafted into the military.”
