Being married is like having ...

Being married is like having somebody permanently in your corner. It feels limitless, not limited.

Gloria Steinem 568 quotes

I'm completely happy not having children. I mean, everybody does not have to live in the same way. And as somebody said, "Everybody with a womb doesn't have to have a child any more than everybody with vocal cords has to be an opera singer."

Voting isn't the most we can do. But it is the least.

Gloria Steinem 568 quotes

In short, pornography is not ...

In short, pornography is not about sex. It's about an imbalance of male-female power that allows and even requires sex to be used as a form of aggression. ... But until we finally untangle sexuality and aggression, there will be more pornography and less erotica. There will be little murders in our beds - and very little love.

Having someone who looks like...

Having someone who looks like us but thinks like them is worse than having no one at all.

[on sexual politics] The Golden Rule works for men as written, but for women it should go the other way around. We need to do unto ourselves as we do unto others.

It used to be said that this country was a child-centered one. Nothing could be further from the truth. Children have been our lowest priority, both in economic and emotional spending.

Women must have seats at the table because peace is too crucial to be left only to the politicians or only to the male half of our world.

Sexism is not inevitable. It's only about controlling reproduction and therefore controlling women.

Gloria Steinem 568 quotes

Whatever a 'superior' group h...

Whatever a 'superior' group has will be used to justify its superiority, and whatever an 'inferior' group has will be used to justify its plight. Black men were given poorly paid jobs because they were said to be 'stronger' than white men, while all women were relegated to poorly paid jobs because they were said to be 'weaker.

There's a wonderful cartoon of Reagan in a Western hat and he's saying, "A pregnant woman in every home, a gun in every holster. Make America a man again." That sums up his attitudes: pro-military, anti-equality, pro-rich, anti-poor.

Life after 50 or 60 is itself another country, as different as adolescence is from childhood, or as adulthood is from adolescence - and just as adventurous.

Marriage works best for men than women. The two happiest groups are married men and unmarried women.

Gloria Steinem 568 quotes

Whatever the gender of the pa...

Whatever the gender of the participants, all pornography including male-male gay pornography is an imitation of the male-female, conqueror-victim paradigm, and almost all of it actually portrays or implies enslaved women and master.

I always thought that "humanist" was a good word long before I understood that anyone thought it was a bad word.

Gloria Steinem 568 quotes

It's important that we recognize how extreme the Republicans are in almost every case and how against our self-interest it is to vote for them whether or not we are disappointed with the current crew. At least they believe in the Constitution. At least they have an idea of economic justice. The Republicans are devoted to creating more rich folks.

Gloria Steinem 568 quotes

The first problem for all of ...

The first problem for all of us, men and woman, is not to learn, but to unlearn. We are filled with the popular wisdom of several centuries just past, and we are terrified to give it up. Patriotism means obedience, age means wisdom, woman means submission, black means inferior: these are preconceptions imbedded so deeply in our thinking that we honestly may not know that they are there.

Gloria Steinem 568 quotes

If women could sleep their way to the top, there'd be a lot more women at the top.

When men realize that feminism is a universal good that affects them in very intimate ways then I think they really become allies and leaders.

Gloria Steinem 568 quotes

Violence is not inevitable. I mean, the only inevitable form of violence is the kind that we understand, the only legitimate (if there can ever be legitimate violence) and that's self-defense.
