I love man as my fellow; but his sceptre, real, or usurped, extends not to me, unless the reason of an individual demands my homage; and even then the submission is to reason, and not to man.  Mary Wollstonecraft, A Vindication of the Rights of Women 

 

I do not wish them [women] to have power over men; but over themselves.  ibid.  

 

Taught from infancy that beauty is woman’s sceptre, the mind shapes itself to the body, and roaming round its gilt cage, only seeks to adorn its prison.  ibid.

 

The pure animal spirits which make both mind and body shoot out, and unfold the tender blossoms of hope, are turned sour and vented in vain wishes, or pert repinings, that contract the faculties and spoil the temper; else they mount to the brain, and sharpening the understanding before it gains proportional strength, produce that pitiful cunning which disgracefully characterises the female mind and I fear will characterise it whilst women remain the slaves of power.  ibid.

 

A slavish bondage to parents cramps every faculty of the mind.  ibid.  

 

From the tyranny of man, I firmly believe, the greater number of female follies proceed.  ibid.

 

I earnestly wish to point out in what true dignity and human happiness consists.  I wish to persuade women to endeavour to acquire strength, both of mind and body, and to convince them that the soft phrases, susceptibility of heart, delicacy of sentiment, and refinement of taste, are almost synonymous with epithets of weakness, and that those beings are only the objects of pity, and that kind of love which has been termed its sister, will soon become objects of contempt.  ibid.

 

Women have seldom sufficient employment to silence their feelings; a round of little cares, or vain pursuits frittering away all strength of mind and organs, they become naturally only objects of sense.  ibid.

 

My own sex, I hope, will excuse me, if I treat them like rational creatures, instead of flattering their fascinating graces, and viewing them as if they were in a state of perpetual childhood, unable to stand alone.  ibid.

 

 

Women are systematically degraded by receiving the trivial attentions which men think it manly to pay to the sex, when, in fact, men are insultingly supporting their own superiority.  Mary Wollstonecraft  

 

 

Was not the world a vast prison, and women born slaves?  Mary Wollstonecraft, ‘The Wrongs of Woman, or Maria’, 1798

 

 

If the abstract rights of man will bear discussion and explanation, those of women, by a parity of reasoning, will not shrink from the same test.  Mary Wollstonecraft

 

 

This act of veiling or covering has had a profound effect on Muslim women, and also how the outside world views Muslims’ attitudes to women in general.  Rageh Omaar, The Life of Muhammad III: Holy Peace, BBC 2011

 

 

Strange creatures, women.  I knew one once.  Fawlty Towers: The Germans s1e6, Major to Basil, BBC 1975

 

 

Women are around all the time but World Cups come only every four years.  Peter Osgood, The Times 9th May 1998

 

 

Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere.  Mae West

 

 

There are no good girls gone wrong – just bad girls found out.  Mae West

 

 

The perpetual hunger to be beautiful and that thirst to be loved which is the real curse of Eve.  Jean Rhys, The Left Bank, 1927

 

 

Feminism is the radical notion that women are human beings.  Cheris Kramarae 

 

 

Science has been named, developed, interpreted by white males for decades.  And women view the conventional wisdom from a slightly different angle.  And that sometimes means they can clearly point to flaws in the logic, gaps in the argument.  They can give a different perspective of what Science is.  Beautiful Minds: Professor Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell, BBC 2010

 

 

You are going to woman?  Do not forget the whip!  Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra, 1883

 

 

Woman was God’s second blunder.  Friedrich Nietzsche, Der Antichrist, 1888

 

 

For the woman, the man is a means: the end is always the child.  Friedrich Nietzsche

 

 

The true man wants two things – danger and play.  For that reason he wants woman as the most dangerous plaything.  Friedrich Nietzsche

 

 

Most of us women like men, you know; it’s just that we find them a constant disappointment.  Clare Short

 

 

According to a recent survey men say the first thing they notice about a woman is the eyes; and women say the first thing they notice about men is they’re a bunch of liars.  Clare Short

 

 

You have to treat em [woman] like s*** [sic].  Donald Trump cited Julie Baumgod, article New York magazine ‘Fighting Back: Trump Scrambles off the Canvas’   

 

 

You know, I’m automatically attracted to beautiful  I just start kissing them.  It’s like a magnet.  Just kiss.  I don’t even wait.  When youre a star, they let you do it.  You can do anything … Grab em by the pussy.  You can do anything.  Donald Trump, to Billy Bush 2005

 

 

Why can’t a woman be more like a man?

Men are so honest, so thoroughly square;

Eternally noble, historically fair;

Who, when you win, will always give your back a pat.

Why can’t a woman be like that?  Alan Jay Lerner, song 1956

 

 

Here’s all you have to know about men and women: women are crazy, men are stupid.  And the main reason women are crazy is that men are stupid.  George Carlin, When Will Jesus Bring The Pork Chops?
