Famous quotes containing the word feminism:
““I hate discussions of feminism that end up with who does the dishes,” she said. So do I. But at the end, there are always the damned dishes.”

—Kimberly Crenshaw (b. 1959)
“... feminism is the attempt of women to grow up, to accept the responsibilities of life, to outgrow those characteristics of childhood—selfishness and unworldliness—that we require our boys to outgrow, but that we permit and by our social system encourage our girls to retain.”
—Henrietta Rodman (1878–?)
