Gender Equality Quotes Quotes

“I stepped out of the box
because I'm a woman who breaks locks.
I break glass ceilings too,
the sky knows my flair, boo.
Where you see the word 'groundbreaking',
know it's me being breathtaking.
I'm a woman;
I gave birth to all men.”
― Mitta Xinindlu

“There are some women who see nothing wrong with misogyny. In fact, they see a man as a higher being in the social hierarchy than themselves. Yet, they wonder why things don't change in our society.”

“Today I celebrate women who are:
Vulnerable but strong.
Sensitive but assertive.
Always learning but intelligent.
Scared but brave.
Victims but survivors.
Helpless but selfless.

Women who break glass-ceilings & barriers.
I see you. I am with you. I am you.”

“Your mind, Rose, is what set you apart from any other woman I've ever known. Your intelligence, your abilities, your compassion, your convictions. I wouldn't be much of a man if I couldn't admire any of those things. If I were threatened by those things.”

“Why are women forced to wear a bra anyway? I miss old African days whereby we could roam our land with our breasts free. The world has mastered the best ways of suffocating a Woman. It's heartbreaking.”
― Mitta Xinindlu

“Women have always been at par with men when it comes to their abilities; it is just that both men and women are gifted differently. Women are more intelligent, while men exhibit traits of being intellectuals. Hypothetically if there is a weighing scale to weigh the abilities of what men can achieve and women can achieve, I am confident that the scale will be balanced. I think creating such awareness will do much good rather than reclaiming equality which naturally exists”
― Henrietta Newton Martin, Legal Counsel & Author

“Sensuality is about disruptive thinking. And disruptive thinking isn’t about picking a side between the masculine and the feminine. It’s about stepping past the arguments and rising above gender issues. This war between genders clearly indicates how far out of touch people are with their sensual side.”

women’s subservience, men’s agency and control and women’s lack of agency and deference.”
