Who do religions fear the most? You're going to say to me: Satan, the devil. It's actually women.

— Patrick Wanis, vice.com

Oversharing. What does it say about us that a woman who speaks the truth of her experience should be dismissed for telling more than the world feels comfortable hearing?

— Joyce Maynard, nytimes.com

If men are so inherently orderly and logical, they can control themselves in a orderly and logical fashion and not kill people because they aren't getting what they want when they want it. Otherwise I don't want to hear any more about how chaotic women are.

— Catherynne Valente, twitter.com

They fuck up, they get beat. We fuck up, they give us pensions.

— George Pelecanos, Det. Ellis Carver, Seth Gilliam, imdb.com

Men shame women for having a lot of consensual sex more than they shame other men for rape.

— kenz Ⓥ, twitter.com

The double standard is really unbelievable. Hollywood loves male directors the more abusive and narcissistic they are. Meantime women directors sneeze in the wrong direction and they’re called difficult. It’s mind blowing.

But this conundrum remains: I want the protection and love of a man while maintaining my own alpha qualities. And I will never again hide or play down my success to appease anyone, especially not my partner.

— Shannon Lell, washingtonpost.com

Yet men are still expected to be protectors and providers. I’ll admit that I benefit from this dynamic. I love that men want to defend the ones they love with strength and fierce determination.

— Avivah Wittenberg-Cox, hbr.org

The worse and most common way people feed rape culture is by making girls change their clothes in their houses because men are present... Boys walk around without shirts & nobody will say anything because we’re already programmed to think that they have nothing to sexualize.
