“My original goal in the '90s, after I found feminism and I was the first generation in my family to go to college, was to spread this information that feminism was still very much alive, and that you can't believe the media telling you that it doesn't need to exist and that it doesn't exist.” NeedsFirstsBelieveStillsFoundGoalAliveGenerationsFeminismMediaInformationCollegeMy FamilyOriginalsSpread Author:Kathleen Hanna
“I spend a lot of time on college campuses, and I don't quite understand where the idea comes from that young women are not moving forward. In fact, statistically, if you look at the public opinion polls, young women are much more supportive of feminism and feminist issues than older women are.” IfsLooksIdeasFactsMovingYoungOpinionIssuesFeminismCollegeFeministMoving ForwardYoung WomenSupportivePublic OpinionPollsCampusOlder WomenCollege CampusOpinion Polls Author:Gloria Steinem
“I think the idea that feminism is dead is dangerous because it leads women and men to believe that (1) they don't have to do anything; the work has been done, and that everything is okay now; and (2) it leaves them kind of alone, I think, in a struggle, and that's something I've seen a lot when I go to colleges and I speak to young women.” ThinkingMenBelieveKindHas BeensIdeasDoneYoungSpeakStruggleFeminismDangerousCollegeMen And WomenOkayYoung Women Author:Jessica Valenti
“The Hillary Clinton story basically is this. And see how similar this sounds to the old days before the modern era of feminism raised its head. You're a girl, you're a young woman, what do you do? You go off to college. That's what she did. Why do you go? To meet your husband. That's what she did. She wouldn't be where she is if it weren't for her husband.” IfsStoriesYoungGirlSoundFeminismModernCollegeHusbandClintonRaisedErasYoung WomenOld DaysYour HusbandModern EraOff To College Author:Rush Limbaugh
“We have the beginnings of feminism starting to rear its head, where all of that got blown up. The whole point of going to college became not to find a husband - screw that! - feminism became, "You don't want anything about a man to be defining you, and you don't want your relationship to define, you! You don't want a relationship to be your happiness. You certainly don't want marriage to be the sole determining reason you live".” MenWantReasonWholeFeminismCollegeHusbandStartingSoleOur RelationshipScrewsDefiningDefine YouGoing To College Author:Rush Limbaugh
