Clementine Ford
“I learned about 'patriarchy', which is the overriding system we all live under whereby men are privileged and generically imbued with the power of dominance.”
Clementine Ford, Fight Like a Girl

Clementine Ford
“Because Not All Men, right? I mean, we'd hate to make them feel bad.

If men are genuine allies to women - if they are genuinely invested in our liberation and equality - why should they feel entitled to any kind of acknowledgement or reward? More to the point, why do we feel constantly pressured to give it to them?

The roots of patriarchy run very, very deep. Some feminists fear that if we don't mollycoddle sympathetic men, they'll throw a tantrum and go home.

But doesn't this urge to placate and flatter simply replicate the same power dynamics that underpin our oppression in the first place?”
Clementine Ford

Ava Dellaira
“Laurel, you couldn't have saved your sister. But, love, you've got to save yourself. Do that for me, okay? Because you are worth it.”
Ava Dellaira, Love Letters to the Dead

“Women contributed to families with our learning and skills, just as any other adult, and when we wished to have children we chose our most trusted male relative - a brother or an uncle, usually - to help raise them within the family. In the Empire, women were forced from their own families and expected to live as a kind of pampered ornament in the home of an unrelated male, who would then take the woman's children as his own. They lived what seemed to me a bizarre, intolerable existence, unable to choose their own lives, careers, or the number, gender or even specific identity of their romantic partners”
Same Hawke

Alice Oseman
“I wonder- if nobody is listening to my voice, am I making any sound at all?”
Alice Oseman, Radio Silence
