More quotes by Andrea Dworkin
Any man will follow any feminine looking thing down any dark alley I've always wanted to see a man beaten to a shit bloody pulp with a high-heeled shoe stuffed up his mouth, sort of the pig with the apple it would be good to put him on a serving plate but you'd need good silver.

Andrea Dworkin
Sexism is the foundation on which all tyranny is built. Every social form of hierarchy and abuse is modeled on male-over-female domination.
Andrea Dworkin
For a mother the project of raising a boy is the most fulfilling project she can hope for.
Andrea Dworkin
Pornography is the essential sexuality of male power: of hate, of ownership, of hierarchy of sadism, of dominance.
Andrea Dworkin
Wild intelligence abhors any narrow world and the world of women must stay narrow, or the woman is an outlaw. No woman could be Nietzsche or Rimbaud without ending up in a whorehouse or lobotomized.
Andrea Dworkin
Any violation of a woman's body can become sex for men this is the essential truth of pornography.
Andrea Dworkin
...In every realm of male expression and action, violence is experienced and articulated as love and freedom.
Andrea Dworkin
I'm a radical feminist, not the fun kind.
