“Both men and women are conceived as merely capable of response to a situation that their society has already defined for them as sexual, and so the Arapesh feel that it is necessary to chaperon betrothed couples who are too young... with their definition of sex as a response to an external situation rather than as spontaneous desire, both men and women are regarded as helpless in the face of seduction.

“We black women must forgive black men for not protecting us against slavery, racism, white men, our confusion, their doubts.

“For me it's absolutely the same - I treat one and the other in exactly the same way. As persons, that is, not as men and women.

“Women tend to be more interested in reconciliation. A Kenyan woman leader said to me, "You know, in a war, men and women want different things. The men care a lot about territory. And they care where the borders are. And they want this whole state. The women," she said, "they want a safe place." And she put her fingers like this, "They want a safe place for their children to go to school without being shot, for their daughters to not be raped."” MenChildrenDifferentWarCareSchoolLeaderHe ManDaughterMen And WomenReconciliationWomen Want Author:Swanee Hunt
