Feminism has had exactly the same problem that "political correctness" has had: people keep using the phrase without really knowing what it means.
Life divides into amazing enjoyable times and appalling experiences that will make future amazing anecdotes.
I have read more about Oprah Winfrey’s ass than I have about the rise of China as an economic superpower. I fear this is no exaggeration. Perhaps China is rising as an economic superpower because its women aren’t spending all their time reading about Oprah Winfrey’s ass.
Heaven. The biggest waste of our time we ever invented, outside jigsaws.
A male feminist is one of the most glorious end-products of evolution.
You wanted to become a doctor to help people and feel better at the end of your job, I think, watching them, as the nurse takes my hand. But I don't think you do feel better at the end of the day. You look like humans have constantly disappointed you.
You think it doesn't really matter if you screw up this time around because you can just sort it all out in paradise
I never wanted to be famous. It was amusing at first, but now I hate it. I just wanted to be respected by people I respect. And I wanted to be rich. It's best to get rich, then you can do what you want.
To say that you have to carry to term and look after a child for the rest of your life is to say I force you, legally, to love someone. It's like saying, you know, you have to go and love another - you have to go - you know, you have to go marry someone. It's like an arranged marriage.
Mental health is seen as a massive drag to have to write about - worthy, dull. Something you should 'have' to read / write about.
There are some women out there who are just going to look better with a mustache: that's statistics.
I don't regret not going to college. Students learn up to the age of 21, then stop. I'll always be learning - the things that really matter in life. How to sign on, how to get free food, how to be streetwise.
I had given up on being beautiful. But I thought I could kind of inspire boys to write songs about me. So I became a music journalist at the age of 16.
Nowadays, to be frank, every week is a good week for freakshow television. we might start asking, Why are there so many freaks? And why do they all want to be on television?
