Naomi Wolf
“What are other women really thinking, feeling, experiencing, when they slip away from the gaze and culture of men?”
Naomi Wolf, The Beauty Myth: How Images of Beauty Are Used Against Women

Naomi Wolf
“We do not have to spend money and go hungry and struggle and study to become sensual; we always were. We need not believe we must somehow earn good erotic care; we always deserved it.

Femaleness and its sexuality are beautiful. Women have long secretly suspected as much. In that sexuality, women are physically beautiful already; superb; breathtaking.

Many, many men see this way too. A man who wants to define himself as a real lover of women admires what shows of her past on a woman's face, before she ever saw him, and the adventures and stresses that her body has undergone, the scars of trauma, the changes of childbirth, her distinguishing characteristics, the light is her expression. The number of men who already see in this way is far greater than the arbiters of mass culture would lead us to believe, since the story they need to tell ends with the opposite moral.”
Naomi Wolf, The Beauty Myth: How Images of Beauty Are Used Against Women
