A lot of women these days, a lot of young women don't want to call themselves feminists. You have this cheap, hideous 'girl power' sort of fad, which I think is pretty benign at best, but at worst, I think it's a way of taking the politics out of feminism and making it some kind of fashion.

It's not important to be defined, it's only important to use your time well.
Ani DiFranco

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.

I don't take good pictures 'cause I have the kind of beauty that moves.

The fundamental imbalance that is behind all of the other social diseases is patriarchy.
