Mental health is seen as a massive drag to have to write about - worthy, dull. Something you should 'have' to read / write about.

More quotes by Caitlin Moran
Feminism, as it stands, well... stands. It has ground to a halt.
Caitlin Moran
I never wanted to be famous. It was amusing at first, but now I hate it. I just wanted to be respected by people I respect. And I wanted to be rich. It's best to get rich, then you can do what you want.
Caitlin Moran
I'm SO glad I spent 10 years being sad and lonely.
Caitlin Moran
I don't campaign for the end of the aristocracy or the upper classes I don't really want to destroy anything at all. I just want more plurality.
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
Let's all go and be feminists in the pub.
Caitlin Moran
I want a Zero Tolerance policy on All The Patriarchal Bullshit.
Caitlin Moran
Heaven. The biggest waste of our time we ever invented, outside jigsaws.
Caitlin Moran
If you've been fat, you will always feel and see the world as a fat person you know how difficult it is... It's the same coming from a working-class background... it never leaves you.
Caitlin Moran
I think that instead of feminism being a political thing, it should be an act of creativity. It's more of a rock n' roll thing.
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
Flyaway, problem hair is the enemy of feminism, and was probably invented by the Man to crush Susan Sontag.
Caitlin Moran
It's the silliness--the profligacy, and the silliness--that's so dizzying: a seven-year-old will run downstairs, kiss you hard, and then run back upstairs again, all in less than 30 seconds. It's as urgent an item on their daily agenda as eating or singing. It's like being mugged by Cupid.
Caitlin Moran
You should write, write, write every day, and learn to edit and pare it right back so you're proud of every sentence, and each one is either being useful or beautiful, but hopefully both.
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
I say this in the spirit of feminist encouragement, but I think I'm pretty hot. I've got all the facial features, facing the right way, at the right end, and you can always paint over the bad bits with makeup.
Caitlin Moran
If you eat enough books, you start pooping out words.
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
The world is difficult and we are all breakable. So just be kind.
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.
