Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“Tell her that her body belongs to her and her alone, that she should never feel the need to say yes to something she does not want, or something she feels pressured to do. Teach her that saying no when no feels right is something to be proud of.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Dear Ijeawele, or A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“we teach girls that a large component of their ability to love is their ability to sacrifice their selves. We do not teach this to boys.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Dear Ijeawele; or, A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions

“Calling pronouns like ze and hir “new pronouns” or “neopronouns” is misleading too, because these words are relatively old. They may be enjoying a renaissance today, but ze appears in 1864, introduced by someone known only by the initials J. W. L., and hir first popped up a century ago, invented, or at least introduced to readers in California, by the editor of the Sacramento Bee on August 14, 1920.”
Dennis Baron, What's Your Pronoun?: Beyond He and She

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“Our world is full of men and women who do not like powerful women.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Dear Ijeawele, or A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“The value we give to "Mrs." means that marriage changes the social status of a woman bur not that of a man.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Dear Ijeawele, or A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions
