Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.
Gloria Steinem
Image
We are literally linked in a circle, including with nature, as well as with other human beings. Old societies didn't have and still don't have he and she. They don't have gendered pronouns. They don't have a word for nature, because we're not separate from nature.
Gloria Steinem
Image
Men tend to gain wholeness by acquiring the qualities that are wrongly called feminine.
Gloria Steinem
Image
In my own mind, I am still a fat brunette from Toledo, and I always will be.
Gloria Steinem
Image
Women are always saying,We can do anything that men cando. But Men should be saying,We can do anything that women can do.

When the gender role starts to descend, boys get into the masculine box.
Gloria Steinem
Image
I wasn't ever unable to function, but I did realize at some point that I had built a wall between myself and my childhood by saying, I'm so glad that's over. Nothing can ever be as bad again, without understanding that my childhood was still very much with me.

Reporters immediately push their interviewees into the most extreme version by saying in a shocked tone, 'Well, are you saying that ... They're trying to make people be as hostile and opposed to each other as possible because they think only conflict is news.

We have to imagine change before we can begin to move toward it.

If you consider that the gender roles are just political, then what you come to see is that the full circle of human qualities is divided up so that two-thirds are masculine and one-third is feminine. Women are missing more of their human qualities, so you'll find us on the fore-front of trying to change this.
Gloria Steinem
Image
women used to be elected only when their husbands died and they became widows. The men found this was too hard on them. That's why they've become feminists.
Gloria Steinem
Image
The best way for us to cultivate fearlessness in our daughters and other young women is by example.
Gloria Steinem
Image
I did not see any way that I could possibly give birth to someone else and also give birth to myself. Far from feeling guilty, it was the first time that I had taken responsibility for my own life.

A good friendship is a conversation that never ends.

Image
The Internet is an almost miraculous way of getting information, of finding and organizing with each other, both minutely and globally. A million times better than the phone and the mimeograph! Also much better than TV, which is one-way and passive.
Gloria Steinem
Image
More women are becoming the men they wanted to marry, but too few men are becoming the women they wanted to marry. That leaves most women with two jobs, one outside the home and one in it.

I am not now, and never have been, a girlfriend of Henry Kissinger.

No wonder male religious leaders so often say that humans were born in sin—because we were born to female creatures. Only by obeying the rules of the patriarchy can we be reborn through men. No wonder priests and ministers in skirts sprinkle imitation birth fluid over our heads, give us new names, and promise rebirth into everlasting life.

If you look at the public opinion polls even, support for all the issues, people who self-identify as feminists are as least as many as those who self-identify as Republicans.
