I think that testosterone is a rare poison.

There have been women in the past far more daring than we would need to be now, who ventured all and gained a little, but survived after all.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

Many a housewife staring at the back of her husband's newspaper, or listening to his breathing in bed is lonelier than any spinster in a rented room.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

If women understand by emancip...

If women understand by emancipation the adoption of the masculine role then we are lost indeed. If women can supply no counterbalance to the blindness of male drive the aggressive society will run to its lunatic extremes at ever-escalating speed. Who will safeguard the despised animal faculties of compassion, empathy, innocence and sensuality?

The element of heroic maleness...

The element of heroic maleness had always been present in the concept of the artist as one who rides the winged horse above the clouds beyond the sight of lesser men, a concept seldom applied to those who worked with colours until the nineteenth century. When the inevitable question is asked, 'Why are there no great women artists?' it is this dimension of art that is implied. The askers know little of art, but they know the seven wonders of the painting world.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

It is in our interests to let ...

It is in our interests to let the police and their employers go on believing that the Underground is a conspiracy, because it increases their paranoia and their inability to deal with what is really happening. As long as they look for ringleaders and documents they will miss their mark, which is that proportion of every personality which belongs in the Underground.

The blind conviction that we h...

The blind conviction that we have to do something about other people's reproductive behavior, and that we may have to do it whether they like it or not, derives from the assumption that the world belongs to us, who have so expertly depleted its resources, rather than to them, who have not.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

Unless the concepts of work an...

Unless the concepts of work and play and reward for work change absolutely, women must continue to provide cheap labor, and even more, free labor exacted of right by an employer possessed of a contract for life, made out in his favor.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

The castration of women has be...

The castration of women has been carried out in terms of a masculine-feminine polarity, in which men have commandeered all the energy and streamlined it into an aggressive conquistadorial power, reducing all heterosexual contact to a sadomasochistic pattern.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

Sex for many has become a sorr...

Sex for many has become a sorry business, a mechanical release involving neither discovery nor triumph, stressing human isolation more dishearte-ingly than ever before.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

The consequences of militancy ...

The consequences of militancy do not disappear when the need for militancy is over.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

Nature herself is not always u...

Nature herself is not always unambiguous. Sometimes a girl child may have so well-developed a clitoris that it is assumed she is a boy. Likewise, many male children may be underdeveloped, or their genitals deformed or hidden and it is assumed that they are girls.

Marriage cannot be a job as it has become.

There are poems about the internet and about the shipping forecast but very few by women celebrating men.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

At the same time as woman was ...

At the same time as woman was becoming the showcase for wealth and caste, while men were slipping into relative anonymity and 'handsome is as handsome does,' she was emerging as the central emblem of western art.

Because love has been so perverted, it has in many cases come to involve a measure of hatred.

My knees have always been ugly.

It is agreed that little girls should have a different physical education than little boys, but it is not admitted how much of the difference is counseled by the conviction that little girls should not look like little boys.

Status ought not to be measured by a woman's ability to attract and snare a man.
