moving thinking two
I think of the future in two ways - survival plus moving forward. Under survival, I would put all the efforts to save the female half of the world from violence directed at us specifically because we are female.
land two giving
I live in the land of delight - of just walking in the street, and the sun is shining, and I'm on my way to Starbucks and I'm feeling good. I also live for those aha! moments when you understand something new, when you see two things fitting together to make a surprising third. There's actually a chemical that's produced in the brain by learning that gives you that little ecstatic moment of, Oh, that's why.
business two people
There are two types of people in the world, those who say 'there are two types of people in the world' and those who don't.
men two funny-marriage
Marriage works best for men than women. The two happiest groups are married men and unmarried women.
circles two political
If you consider that the gender roles are just political, then what you come to see is that the full circle of human qualities is divided up so that two-thirds are masculine and one-third is feminine. Women are missing more of their human qualities, so you'll find us on the fore-front of trying to change this.
jobs children two
You can't do it all. No one can have two full-time jobs, have perfect children and cook three meals and be multi-orgasmic 'til dawn ... Superwoman is the adversary of the women's movement.

two feminist choices
Women have two choices: Either she's a feminist or a masochist.
compete favours men spent women
Do women compete for the favours of men? Yes. They've spent 5,000 years competing.
acting art behaving morally
The art of acting morally is behaving as if everything we do matters.
anchor authority female girls iconic image learn network since telling vision women
One thing is sure. Women and girls will have their first vision of a female network anchor who is an authority on her own. Since we learn by example, there's no telling where that iconic image may lead.
men path power twice
Men should think twice before making widowhood women's only path to power
affects general men taken women
In a general way, anything that affects men is taken more seriously than anything that affects only women.
life writers
I started out life as a writer, and writers write in part because they don't want to talk.
