cat film life-is
Your life is a Fellini film, lacking only Anita Ekberg with a cat on her head.
girl sex nice
I want a revamped feminism. Putting the vamp back means the lady must be a tramp. My generation of the Sixties rebels wanted to smash the bourgeois codes that had become authoritarian totems of the Fifties.... Thirty years later, we're still stuck with the ["nice" girl].
dogma artwork shock
Nothing is more hackneyed than the liberal dogma that shock value confers automatic importance on an artwork.
brave-new-world men sharks
If men are obsolete, then women will soon be extinct -- unless we rush down that ominous Brave New World path where women clone themselves by parthenogenesis, as famously do Komodo dragons, hammerhead sharks, and pit vipers.
video evident
Madonna's great instinctive intelligence was evident to me from her earliest videos.
sex hair color
Madonna has a far profounder vision of sex than do the feminists. She sees both the animality and the artifice. Changing her costume style and hair color virtually every month, Madonna embodies the eternal values of beauty and pleasure. Feminism says, 'No more masks.' Madonna says we are nothing but masks. Through her enormous impact on young women around the world, Madonna is the future of feminism.
christian philosophy italian
I sometimes call my new system 'Italian pagan Catholicism,' but it could more accurately be called 'pragmatic liberalism,' with roots in Enlightenment political philosophy. It is a synthesis of the enduring dual elements in our culture, pagan and Judeo-Christian, Romantic and Classic.
christian meaningful sex
Judeo-Christians have got to respect the pagan truth shown in the popular culture of sex and violence. It's meaningful about the elemental forces of life, the brutality of life and nature.
feminism self-importance
before feminism was, Paglia was!
needs revolution
Every revolution eventually needs a new revolution.
feminist suffering feminism
Whiffle [whine and wheeze and snuff and sniffle]: The annoying scratchy sound made by weepy feminists as they lament the sufferings of women and, houndlike, sniff out evidence of male oppression.
sex president feminism
I'm for a high libido president! I applaud him if he gets up and picks up women.
government behavior intervening
government has no business intervening in any consensual private behavior.
men light personality
Western man represents himself, on the political or psychological stage, in a spectacular world-theater. Our personality is innately cinematic, light-charged projections flickering on the screen of Western consciousness.
