More quotes by Caitlin Moran
As far as I'm concerned, you're a feminist by default if you're born in the Western world right now.
Caitlin Moran
Feminism has had exactly the same problem that political correctness has had: people keep using the phrase without really knowing what it means.
Caitlin Moran
It's just a horrible thing to keep saying to a woman, do you want a baby inside you? I mean, it's creepy.
Caitlin Moran
One of the great things about being a writer/journalist is that my boss loves me to go out and do features on being someone else. I did a feature on Kate Middleton, where I went to an incredible fancy state home in the countryside, put on a wedding dress and posed for engagement pictures with a fake Prince William.
Caitlin Moran
I wish I could give up smoking, but it does taste so delicious.
Caitlin Moran
I want a Zero Tolerance policy on All The Patriarchal Bullshit.
Caitlin Moran
Why on earth have I, because I'm a woman, got to be nice to everyone?
Caitlin Moran
For me, and I suspect a lot of socially awkward people, dealing with people face-to-face seems really traumatic. Particularly if you have massive sweating issues, and particularly if on top of that you have quite smelly sweat that smells like onion soup.
Caitlin Moran
There's something so free about being a fan and being enthusiastic about stuff - you attract all the other people who are also loving and enthusiastic when you're sending out signals of love. When you start to communicate cynicism and hatred, it leads you down a completely different path.
Caitlin Moran
A majority of women's magazines feature women who do amazing things, but then the article focuses on how she ruined it with her shoes.
Caitlin Moran
The problem that we have is thinking there's only one kind of feminist, and that she's politically correct and right on at all times, wears flat shoes, doesn't wear makeup, probably doesn't have sex, is very angry, wears dungarees, is a vegetarian.
Caitlin Moran
I am in love, and he's the one. Obviously I thought the one before him was the one and the one before that was the one, too. Frankly, I'm so much into the idea of being in love that anyone out of about 3 million could be the one. But no, this one now is definitely the one, the very one.
Caitlin Moran
But as the years went on, I realised that what I really want to be, all told, is a human. Just a productive, honest, courteously treated human.
Caitlin Moran
In the end I want to spend my 60s writing bonkbusters like Jilly Cooper.
Caitlin Moran
If you do it properly, life is art, really.
Caitlin Moran
I think it's a really important thing for women to be able to just put their hands up and go, I can't actually do any more.
Caitlin Moran
The first thing to improve society is not banning abortion, but making sure that everyone who had a child is in the best position to be able to rear it.
Caitlin Moran
Batman doesn’t want a baby in order to feel he’s ‘done everything’. He’s just saved Gotham again! If this means that Batman must be a feminist role model above, say, Nicola Horlick, then so be it.
Caitlin Moran
If anyone was going to write a song or, you know, or a book, or make a film about a girl like me, it was going to have to be a girl like me, and quite literally, me.
Caitlin Moran
It's always sunny above the clouds. Always. Every day on earth - every day I have ever had - was secretly sunny, after all.
