It seems that different people have an idea of what I am, and what I should be. And then there's me.

What I like way better than LGBT in terms of labeling sexuality actually is a scheme that comes to me from my friend Animal Prufrock wherein one is identified not by what they supposedly are but rather by what they are into. Which brings us to the terms hemosexual, shemosexual, and mosexual.

If a politician is running in your local community who's pro-choice, who's feminist in their thinking, get behind them. Send them some money! If you have no money but have time, lick stamps!

I can jump ship and swim-- that the ocean will hold me, that there's got to be more than this boat I'm in.

I am not an angry girl, but it seems I've got everyone fooled. Every time I say something they find hard to hear, they chalk it up to my anger and not to their own fear. Imagine you're a girl just trying to finally come clean, knowing full well they prefer you dirty and smiling.

I'd rather be able to face myself in the bathroom mirror than be rich and famous.

Just let me go, we have to be able to criticize what we love, to say what we have to say 'cause if you're not trying to make something better, then as far as I can tell, you are just in the way.

I think if we can't use the word feminist, if it's some kind of taboo or dirty word, or means you're ugly, or you're angry, or you're not dateable [laughs], then you've just reduced the language by a whole concept.

Some people's minds we're not going to change. But if we can't, we need to bring more positive voices into the discussion.

My life may not be something special But it's never been lived before.

Strangers are exciting, their mystery never ends. But, there's nothing like looking at your own history in the faces of your friends.

I've been a long time coming, and I'll be a long time gone. You've got your whole life to do something, and that's not very long.

My idea of feminism is self-determination, and it's very open-ended: every woman has the right to become herself, and do whatever she needs to do.

My country tis of thee, to take swings at each other on talk show TV.

Squint your eyes and look closer I'm not between you and your ambition I am a poster girl with no poster I am thirty-two flavors and then some And I'm beyond your peripheral vision So you might want to turn your head Cause someday you might find you're starving and eating all of the words you said.
