“I used to play Barbies with my Mormon neighbor friend; it was always, "Oh, we're going to go on a date. Ken's taking us out, and we're going with Ken on a date." And I was like, "We're parachuting behind enemy lines to save the Jews." That's how I played Barbies. I was told when I was a girl that every Jewish woman has to have five children to replace three fifths of our people that were killed. That's how I was raised.” PeopleChildrenPlayUsedGirlThreeLinesBehindsEnemyFiveGoes OnRaisedJewNeighborBarbieNeighbors Friends Author:Roseanne Barr
“In England, I was quite struck to see how forward the girls are made--a child of 10 years old, will chat and keep you company, while her parents are busy or out etc.--with the ease of a woman of 26. But then, how does this education go on?--Not at all: it absolutely stops short.” YearsChildrenDoeMadeGirlParentWomenEducationCompanyGoes OnEnglandBusyEaseEtc Author:Fanny Burney

I thought that maybe it would be informative and useful for people to know more about it.” PeopleThinkingKnowsWorldStoriesWould BeGirlPerfectGoes OnInformativeIndictment Author:Julian Schnabel

“Too often little attention is paid to individual talent. instead, education goes on dividing people according to their sex, and putting them in little feminine or masculine pigeonholes ... Girls are shielded and sometimes helped so much that they lose initiative and begin to believe the signs 'Girls don't' and 'Girls can't' which mark their paths... Consequently, it seems almost necessary to evolve different methods of instruction for them when they later take up the same subjects.” PeopleBelieveLittlesDifferentSometimesSeemsGirlIndividualSexWomenLosesAttentionPathSubjectsTalentGoes OnMarkPaidMethodEvolveAviationFeminineInstructionInitiativeMasculineDividingIndividual Talent Author:Amelia Earhart
