Book cover for Emma
The real evils, indeed, of Emma’s situation were the power of having rather too much her own way, and a disposition to think a little too well of herself:

Amia Srinivasan
“Think back, she asks straight women, to the first time you betrayed your best friend for male attention. Was that natural? Inevitable? Or something demanded of you by the infrastructure of male domination, which fears most of all the absence of female desire, and with it the end of men’s presumed access to women’s bodies, labor, minds, hearts?”
Amia Srinivasan, The Right to Sex: Feminism in the Twenty-First Century

“I'm becoming an angry person with no tolerance for anyone. I'm aware of this shift and yet have no desire to change it. If anything, I want it. It's armor. It's easier to be angry than to feel to pain underneath it.”
Jennette McCurdy, I'm Glad My Mom Died

Amia Srinivasan
“A famous philosopher once said to me that he objected to feminist critiques of sex because it was only during sex that he felt truly outside politics, that he felt truly free. I asked him what his wife would say to that.”
Amia Srinivasan, The Right to Sex: Feminism in the Twenty-First Century

“Mom didn’t get better. But I will.”
Jennette McCurdy, I'm Glad My Mom Died

“I tried desperately to understand and know my mother—what made her sad, what made her happy, and on and on and on—at the expense of ever really knowing myself. Without Mom around, I don’t know what I want. I don’t know what I need. I don’t know who I am. And I certainly don’t know what to wish for.”
Jennette McCurdy, I'm Glad My Mom Died
