“Our culture is so overwhelmed by the concept of females as sexual beings that whenever it comes to light, it is immediately seen as the only facet of a woman. It's perfectly fine for us to see women as sexual objects, but once she becomes a sexual subject, she can't be anything else. She can't be ladylike, intelligent, politically conscious, or respectable...We seem to be afraid of women who can be all of this and more when really, we should admire and learn from them.”
