Flyaway, problem hair is the enemy of feminism, and was probably invented by the Man to crush Susan Sontag.

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.

Image
I wish I could give up smoking, but it does taste so delicious.

Heaven. The biggest waste of our time we ever invented, outside jigsaws.

Feminism has had exactly the same problem that political correctness has had: people keep using the phrase without really knowing what it means.

I loved Riot Grrl. Not only was it a punk rock revolution, but it meant you could get dressed for a night out for less than two pounds!

I like a little bit of revolution. I think it's a very good hobby for a young woman. Better than squash.

It's always sunny above the clouds. Always. Every day on earth - every day I have ever had - was secretly sunny, after all.

To say that you have to carry to term and look after a child for the rest of your life is to say I force you, legally, to love someone. It's like saying, you know, you have to go and love another - you have to go - you know, you have to go marry someone. It's like an arranged marriage.

I think loads of women have this idea that their life is going to start at some point, once they've busted all these problems of being a woman, once we're thin and we're pretty and we've got all of our clothes and stuff, that's when our life will begin. And you meet people at 48 who are still thinking that, and 58.

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.

The world is difficult and we are all breakable. So just be kind.

A 'sign of weakness' for a male celebrity is being found to be unfaithful, or unkind to an employee, or having crashed their car while stoned out of their tiny minds. A 'sign of weakness' for a woman, on the other hand, can be a single, unflattering picture.

If you eat enough books, you start pooping out words.

I can only work between the hours of 8:30 and 4:30, because that's when the kids are at school. So I get to do all my work and have all of my fun in that time, which means just sitting on a chair, typing, alternately clicking between writing a column and being on Twitter, and smoking as many cigarettes as I can before my lungs give out.

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.

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.
