Natalie Haynes
“Who could love a coward?' She had once heard a woman say. Laodamia knew the answer. Someone for whom the alternative is loving a corpse.”
Natalie Haynes, A Thousand Ships

Pauline Harmange
“Misandry and misogyny cannot be compared, quite simply because the former exists only in reaction to the latter.”
Pauline Harmange, I Hate Men

Pauline Harmange
“The accusation of misandry is a mechanism for silencing women, a way of silencing the anger – sometimes violent but always legitimate – of the oppressed standing up to their oppressors. Taking offence at misandry, claiming it’s merely a form of sexism like any other, and no less unacceptable (as if sexism were genuinely reviled), is a bad-faith way of sweeping under the carpet the mechanisms that make sexist oppression a systemic phenomenon buoyed throughout history by culture and authority. It’s to allege that a woman who hates men is as dangerous as a man who hates women – and that there’s no rational justification for what she feels, be it dislike, distrust or disdain. Because, obviously, no man has ever hurt a woman in the whole course of human history. Or rather, no men have ever hurt any women.”
Pauline Harmange, I Hate Men

Natalie Haynes
“When a war was ended, the men lost their lives. But the women lost everything else.”
Natalie Haynes, A Thousand Ships

“For if a woman was a person in her own right, one could conclude she was also in possession of a mind and a heart of her own, and thus had needs of her own.”
Evie Dunmore, A Rogue of One's Own
