“As a young girl, there were the obvious messages about what girls could and couldn't achieve. And to compound the limitations I felt being leveled upon me, I realized at the age of nine, that I was gay.” AgeYoungGirlFeltAchieveGayMessagesObviousI RealizedNineLimitationCompounds Author:Chely Wright
“Guys think that if a girl is pretty, she's automatically going to say no. Most of the guy's I've gone out with, I've had to make it completely obvious that I'd like them to ask me out. Or, I've had to ask them.” IfsThinkingGuyGirlAsksGoneObviousAsk Me Author:Brooke Shields
“Early on, girls begin to menstruate, which is dramatic but not obvious to their playmates. They grow taller and rounder, but underneath their makeup they are still recognizably themselves. For boys it is far more disorienting. Puberty comes later, sometimes much later, and its delay is humiliating. While the tall round girls are getting themselves up like grown women, the prepubertal boys, with their featureless, hairless bodies, are just dirty little kids who could pass for the children of the hypermature girls.” ChildrenLittlesStillsSometimesBodyKidsGirlGrowsBoysRoundsObviousDirtyDramaticMakeupTallDelayLittle KidHumiliatingPubertyGrown Women Author:Frank Pittman

“I like girls that are down to earth, intelligent, and don't try to be anything that they're not. One thing that I fall for all the time is girls with blue eyes and brown hair.

“The most obvious ones inspiring me are probably women in political life. There are also many women in artistic endeavors, but if they're painters, you don't necessarily see them, or if they're actors, you see the role they're playing. In political life, you see women of enormous courage and smarts and humor, and that releases the talent, especially in little girls who are watching.” IfsLittlesPoliticalGirlActorsRolesTalentSmartObviousEnormousPainterReleaseArtisticEndeavorPolitical Life Author:Gloria Steinem
