Valerie Solanas
“The male is a biological accident: the Y (male) gene is an incomplete X (female) gene, that is, it has an incomplete set of chromosomes. In other words, the male is an incomplete female, a walking abortion, aborted at the gene stage. To be male is to be deficient, emotionally limited; maleness is a deficiency disease and males are emotional cripples.”
Valerie Solanas, SCUM Manifesto
tags: males, men

bell hooks
“All too often women believe it is a sign of commitment, an expression of love, to endure unkindness or cruelty, to forgive and forget. In actuality, when we love rightly we know that the healthy, loving response to cruelty and abuse is putting ourselves out of harm's way.”
Bell Hooks, All About Love: New Visions

Margaret Atwood
“A word after a word after a word is power.”
Margaret Atwood

Valerie Solanas
“The male claim that females find fulfillment through motherhood and sexuality reflects what males think they'd find fulfilling if they were female.”
Valerie Solanas, SCUM Manifesto

William S. Burroughs
“The junk merchant doesn't sell his product to the consumer, he sells the consumer to his product. He does not improve and simplify his merchandise. He degrades and simplifies the client.”
William S. Burroughs, Naked Lunch: The Restored Text
