Simone de Beauvoir
“The fact is that a true human privilege is based upon the anatomical privilege only in virtue of the total situation. Psychoanalysis can establish its truths only in the historical context.”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex

Jessica Valenti
“...idea at play here is that of “morality.” When young women are taught about morality, there’s not often talk of compassion, kindness, courage, or integrity. There is, however, a lot of talk about hymens”
Jessica Valenti, The Purity Myth: How America's Obsession with Virginity is Hurting Young Women

Jessica Valenti
“Making women the sexual gatekeepers and telling men they just can't help themselves not only drives home the point that women's sexuality is unnatural, but also sets up a disturbing dynamic in which women are expected to be responsible for men's sexual behavior.”
Jessica Valenti, The Purity Myth: How America's Obsession with Virginity is Hurting Young Women

Simone de Beauvoir
“Woman is shut up in a kitchen or in a boudoir, and astonishment is expressed that her horizon is limited. Her wings are clipped, and it is found deplorable that she cannot fly. Let but the future be opened to her, and she will no longer be compelled to linger in the present.”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex

Andrea Dworkin
“It is a tragedy beyond the power of language to convey when what has been imposed on women by force becomes a standard of freedom for women: and all the women say it is so.”
Andrea Dworkin, Intercourse
