Quote by Lindy West

“Men can choose how they treat us and this is the world they choose. Frankly, not being angry would be irrational. Feminism is the collective manifestation of female anger. Men suppress our anger for a reason. Let's prove them right.”

A position from which a woman could offend far more deeply than a man.”
