“Patriarchy is an old habit. Like old habits, it will take a long time to die—but we can hasten its demise by telling a different story.”
“In this society, white maleness is seen as the norm. When they write about white male things, we think of those stories as universal. But really ALL stories should be universal.”
“Too many men feel that they have a right to women’s bodies. No she doesn’t have to give you a reason for saying no.”
“In many situations, women laugh not from humour but because of discomfort.”
