“... there is nothing more irritating to a feminist than the average Womans Page of a newspaper, with its out-dated assumption that all women have a common trade interest in the household arts, and a common leisure interest in clothes and the doings of high society.

—Crystal Eastman (18811928)
“Navajo men and boys have an odd way of showing their friendship. When two young men meet at the trading post, a Sing, or a dance they greet each other, inquire about the health of their respective families, then stand silently some ten or fifteen minutes while one feels the others arms, shoulders, and chest.”
—Administration in the State of Ariz, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
