“The Government as Substitute Husband did for women what labor unions still have not accomplished for men. And men pay dues for labor unions; the taxpayer pays the dues for feminism. Feminism and government soon become taxpayer-supported women's unions.” MenStillsGovernmentPayFeminismHusbandLaborUnionsDuesAccomplishedSubstitutesTaxpayersLabor Union Author:Warren Farrell
“Feminism is not antisexuality. On the contrary. It says that sexuality shouldn't be confused with violence and dominance and that it should be a matter of free choice. It shouldn't be forced on you by economics, including dependence on a husband, or by pressure.” ShouldMatterChoicesViolenceFeminismHusbandEconomicsPressureIncludingSexualityContraryConfusedDependenceDominanceFree Choice Author:Gloria Steinem
“Thanks to feminism, women can now acquire status in two ways: through marriage or their own achievements. Cure cancer or marry the man who does, either way society will applaud. Unless he marries into the British royal family, it doesn't work that way for men. Wives shed no glory on their husbands.

“Emancipation can only come from within; it cannot be dictated by someone else. A law banning the wearing of headscarves changes nothing, except perhaps external appearance.

“When you say you're not a feminist, if feminism hadn't existed, and you didn't live in a feminist world, you wouldn't be saying that, because you'd be too busy scrubbing out the toilets in back while cooking up your husband's tea and dying in childbirth at the age of 34.” IfsWorldAgeFeminismDyingHusbandCookingBusyFeministTeaToiletsToo BusyChildbirthYour Husband Author:Caitlin Moran
“In little more than a generation, feminism has obliterated roles. If you wonder why so many men choose not to get married, the answer lies in large part in the contemporary devaluation of the husband and of the father - of men as men, in other words.” IfsMenLittlesLyingFatherAnswersWonderRolesGenerationsFeminismHusbandMarriedContemporary Author:Dennis Prager
“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
“Her [Hillary Clinton's] husband is running around on her with everything that walks. He's having an affair with Gennifer Flowers, he's having an affair with... I forget the names, but they're legion. He's cheating on her frequently, and she knows about it and yet puts up with it and stays in Arkansas. Why? At the beginning of feminism, when this is exactly the kind of boorish behavior women are not gonna put up with anymore, no way.” KnowsWayKindRunningNamesWalksForgetFeminismFlowerHusbandBehaviorClintonAffairCheatingLegionArkansas Author:Rush Limbaugh
“I think that feminism permits women to speak among themselves, instead of simply being resentful, having personal complaints, which get them nowhere and which make them sick and ill-tempered, depressive and poison the lives of their husbands and children. It's much better to arrive at a collective consciousness of this problem, which is both a kind of therapy and the basis for a struggle.” ThinkingKindChildrenProblemSpeakConsciousnessStruggleFeminismHusbandSickBasesIllTherapyPoisonCollectivesPermitComplaintsResentfulDepressiveCollective ConsciousnessIll Tempered Author:Simone de Beauvoir
“Hillary Clinton said that white women did not vote for her because their husbands told them not to. You remember that? And we all said, "Wait a minute. What happened to feminism?

“I think about how truly interesting and odd it is that when a woman marries, traditionally she loses her name, becoming absorbed by the husband's family name - she is in effect lost, evaporated from all records under her maiden name. I finally understand the anger behind feminism - the idea that as a woman you are property to be conveyed between your father and your husband, but never an individual who exists independently. And on the flip side, it is also one of the few ways one can legitimately get lost - no one questions it.” ThinkingWayIdeasFatherNamesIndividualLostSidesLosesInterestingBehindsRecordsFeminismEffectsBecomingHusbandPropertyOddFlipMaidensYour HusbandFamily NameMaiden Names Book:The Mistress's Daughter: A Memoir Source: The Mistress's Daughter: A Memoir
