Quote by Hélène Cixous

“By writing her self, woman will return to the body which has been more than confiscated from her, which has been turned into an uncanny stranger on display- the ailing or dead figure, which so often turns out to be the nasty companion, the cause and location of inhibitions.”

“The belief that women are more powerful when they band together in what has been called sisterhood is disempowering. That men believe they can and should do something by their own ingenuity and skills on their own is an important advantage. Not just feminists believe in the notion of feminine solidarity — a sort of lifetime sorority — but feminists have promoted it relentlessly. It is a disabling fallacy.”

“I know that women cry out of shame. We are afraid of our anger, embarrassed by the way that it transforms us. We cry to quell what we feel, even when it's trying to tell us something, even when it has every right to exist.”

“[Gender ideology] industry has built a legal human rights apparatus to change our species' borders [...] it is tyranny dressed up in the clothes of what has become the carcass of the progressive left, and it seeks absolute power and control over humanity and nature.”

“Resistance to what amounts to a technological religious cult being orchestrated through the very technology those in power want to meld us with, must become a love story for our time. Defiance against our enslavement to a mechanised life, and protection of the children who will inhabit this earth and hopefully their bodies after we're gone, should fuel exhilaration not despair. We have but one life and if we use it to help each other, then failure is impossible.”

“Instituting gender identity as a legal concept deconstructs what it means to human at its core: a biologically, sexually dimorphic species. This is the point. Gender is an obfuscation. The corporate state is deconstructing sex.”

“Autogynophilia reduces women's sexed humanity to parts available for purchase, as all aspects of the sex industries do. Support is flourishing for this development under a human rights framework, while woman are being erased in language and law, and the men with this paraphilia are given more prominence.”

“Humans are connected to the biosphere by sex. The deconstruction of sex in language and law, its separation from intimacy via fetish and porn, the manipulation of young people's sex characteristics, seem to pave the way for further encroachment into our biology and our more complete melding with technology. Synthetic sexes work as a grooming process for the public to accept more violations of our physical boundaries while also providing young, healthy, resilient bodies to experiment on.”
