More quotes by Caitlin Moran
Whenever I see a taboo, I just think that's something we need to drag screaming out into the light and discuss. Because taboos are where our fears live, and taboos are the things that keep us tiny. Particularly for women.
Caitlin Moran
Any action a woman engages in from a spirit of joy, and within a similarly safe and joyous environment, falls within the city-walls of feminism. A girl has a right to dance how she wants, when her favourite record comes on.
Caitlin Moran
A male feminist is one of the most glorious end-products of evolution.
Caitlin Moran
The world is difficult and we are all breakable. So just be kind.
Caitlin Moran
You think it doesn't really matter if you screw up this time around because you can just sort it all out in paradise
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
I have read more about Oprah Winfrey’s ass than I have about the rise of China as an economic superpower. I fear this is no exaggeration. Perhaps China is rising as an economic superpower because its women aren’t spending all their time reading about Oprah Winfrey’s ass.
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
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.
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
All the things that are taboo are the things that are not normal, and all the things that are not normal are the things that are exclusively about physically being a woman.
Caitlin Moran
When I talk to girls, they go, 'I'm not a feminist.' And I say: 'What? You don't want to vote? Do you want to be owned by your husband? Do you want your money from your job to go into his bank account? If you were raped, do you still want that to be a crime? Congratulations : you are a feminist.'
Caitlin Moran
My core belief is that if you're complaining about something for more than three minutes, two minutes ago you should have done something about it.
Caitlin Moran
I love puffins. They are small, round gothic birds, and their babies are called pufflings.
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
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 you read all your history books, there are no women in them.
Caitlin Moran
I just want Tina Fey to be my best friend. And Lena Dunham. And Oprah, too.
Caitlin Moran
There are some women out there who are just going to look better with a mustache: that's statistics.
Caitlin Moran
When you say you're not a feminist, if feminism hadn't existed, and you didn't live in a feminist world, you wouldn't be saying that, because you'd be too busy scrubbing out the toilets in back while cooking up your husband's tea and dying in childbirth at the age of 34.
