“Since, though I do not repent my amorous exploits, I am far from wanting my example to contribute to the corruption of the fair sex, which deserves our homage for so many reasons, I hope that my observations will foster prudence in fathers and mothers and thus at least deserve their esteem.” ReasonMotherFatherSexExampleDeserveFairsCorruptionEsteemObservationRepentPrudenceExploitsHomageAmorous Book:History of My Life Source: History of My Life
“The daimonic is any natural function which has the power to take over the whole person. Sex and eros, anger and rage, and the craving for power are examples. The daimonic can be either creative or destructive and is normally both.” PersonsWholeSexNaturalCreativeExampleFunctionRageDestructiveCravingErosWhole Person Book:Love and will Source: Love and will

“The usual sniggering examples of animal behaviour were brought in to explain cheating. Funny how the behaviour of shrews and gibbons is never used to explain table manners or road safety or gardening, only sex. Anyway, it was bad Darwinism. Taking the example of a monkey and applying it to yourself misses the point that animal behaviour is made for the benefit of the species, not as an excuse for the individual. Being incapable of sustaining a stable pair and supporting children is really not in the interests of our species. Neither is it really in the best interests of the philanderer.” ChildrenMadeUsedIndividualSexInterestAnimalMissingExampleEvolutionBenefitsSafetyTablesSpeciesExcuseMannersCheatingPairsUsualGardeningStableBehaviourIncapableMonkeysSustainingDarwinismTable MannersShrewsPhilanderer Author:A.

“Even the new feminist research on sex-role socialization and sex differences has sometimes had the unfortunate consequence of creating a new set of stereotypes about what women feel and how women behave. Despite the large amount of overlap between the sexes in most research, the tendency to label and polarize and thus to exaggerate differences remains in much reporting of data, which may, for example, report the mean scores of male and female populations but not the degree of overlap.” FeelsMayMeanSometimesSexDifferencesRolesExampleAmountDegreesCreatingResearchConsequenceFemaleRemainsMalesPopulationFeministTendenciesDespiteDataLabelsBehaveReportsScoreSexismUnfortunateStereotypeSocializationSex Differences Author:Rosabeth Moss Kanter
“We are intensely loyal to our parents. In spite of the pain we experienced at our parent's hands, we cling tenaciously to their views of life; and their examples of what it is to be a man or a woman follow us throughout life. Acknowledging the power of our loyalty to them, and especially our loyalty to our same-sex parent, is only the beginning of our journey to improve upon their model; but it is at least a first step.” MenFirstsHandsPainSexParentViewsStepsJourneyExampleModelsLoyaltySpiteLoyalFirst StepsBe A Man Author:Augustus Napier
“I wouldn't want to promote teenage girls having sex. But the reality is, it's happening, and they're just a little too young to understand how careful they need to be. That's a big battle with me, because I'm 23, and a lot of my fans are eight years younger than I am, so there's a bit of a tug-of-war there. I want to set the right example and, at the same time, live my life.” WantNeedsYearsLittlesWarBigsRealityYoungGirlSexBitsFansExampleBattleHappeningsCarefulEightTeenageLiving My LifeHaving SexTeenage GirlTug Of War Author:Rihanna

“I make films about working class people. All my films have always been about that. For example, the brothel is a workplace. It's aberrant, but a workplace nonetheless. I was more interested as opposed to glamorizing and saying, oh, this is a great erotic place, it's a place of business. The commodity is sex.” PeopleFilmSexClassExampleCommodityWorking ClassWorkplaceEroticBrothels Author:Taylor Hackford
“We shall have to stop looking askance on trends in relation to sex merely as a reproductive capability, i.e. that it is normal to make babies.

“Mexico is sex and Canada is mind. There is much about Canada that I find admirable - the treatment of immigrants, for example, particularly those from Central America during the recent civil wars there. But there is confusion too: I know of Croatian Nazis who are subsidized by the Canadian government to maintain their racist culture. There is Canada, trying to sustain diversity without knowing exactly what it's doing.” KnowsTryingMindWarGovernmentAmericaCultureSexKnowingExampleDiversityConfusionCivil WarCanadaTreatmentRacistImmigrantsMexicoNaziAdmirableCentral AmericaCanadian GovernmentCroatians Author:Richard Rodriguez
