“I'm totally against women in combat, because we live in a culture and a society that imposes on every man the concept of women and children first...If you had a man and a woman trying to go through some dangerous woods, the man's instinct would be to protect the woman. Therefore you weaken the man.” IfsMenTryingFirstsChildrenWould BeCultureSexDangerousHe ManProtectConceptsInstinctWoodsEvery ManCombatWomen In Combat Author:Grace Hopper
“As far as male and female are concerned, difference is a biological fact, whereas equality is a political, ethical and social concept. No rule of nature or of social organization says that the sexes have to be the same or do the same things in order to be social, political and economic equals.” FactsPoliticalOrderSocialSexDifferencesEconomicConceptsConcernedFemaleOrganizationMalesEqualityEthicalSocial Organization Author:Alice S Rossi
“Talking about sexual morality, I wouldn't agree that it's declining, but it's certainly changing. Young and old, we are very much in the process of taking a fresh look at the whole issue of morality. The only decline that's taking place - and it's about time - is in the old puritanical concept that sex is equated with sin.” LooksWholeYoungSexProcessSinTalkingIssuesMoralityConceptsAgreeDeclineYoung And Old Author:Johnny Carson
“It’s an odd term, 'girlfriend,' particularly for grown persons. And in practice it provides an even odder concept. Generally speaking, in adults it described a woman, not a girl, who was willing to provide sex, not friendship. In fact, from what I had observed it was quite possible for one to actively dislike one’s girlfriend, although of course true hatred is reserved for marriage.” PersonsFactsGirlCoursesSexTermPracticeWillingConceptsAdultsHatredOddGirlfriendDislikeReservedNot Friends Book:Dearly Devoted Dexter Source: Dearly Devoted Dexter
“I don't know what falling in love for me is. The concept of romantic love arose in the Middle Ages. Now remember, the Arabs don't even have a word for love-that is, a word for love apart from physical attraction or sex. And this separation of love and sex is a western concept, a Christian concept. As to what falling in love means, I'm uncertain. Love, well, it means simply physical attraction and liking a person at the same time.” KnowsWellsMeanPersonsAgeChristianRememberFallSexMiddleConceptsFalling In LoveWesternAttractionSeparationRomantic LoveUncertainMiddle AgesLove MeansPhysical Attraction Author:William S.
