I was making a Gloria Steinem joke and went looking for quotes

[sylvanstargazer]

And two really struck me. First:

"Childbirth is more admirable than conquest, more amazing than self-defense, and as courageous as either one."

And secondly:

"Some of us are becoming the men we wanted to marry."

Damn straight.

[About "Dr. Ruth" Westheimer:] "She has become the Julia Child of sex."

"But the problem is that when I go around and speak on campuses, I still don't get young men standing up and saying, 'How can I combine career and family?'"

“Planning ahead is a measure of class. The rich and even the middle class plan for future generations, but the poor can plan ahead only a few weeks or days.”

She seems like a pretty cool lady. I'm glad I got to hear her speak in college.
