More quotes by Gloria Steinem
If women could sleep their way to the top, there'd be a lot more women at the top.
Gloria Steinem
The premise of most media is that only conflict is newsworthy. And that's just not true. I think for a lot of men, too - certainly for most women - there's enough real conflict without manufacturing it. The media formula is always to have a pro and con, to say there are two sides to any issue, when in fact there may be ten sides.
Gloria Steinem
That's a huge fear for middle-class women. It's not so much a fear for poor women, because poor women have always assumed that they are going to have to support themselves. It's middle-class women who have this fantasy that somebody else is going to support them.
Gloria Steinem
The father who raises a son to have a profession he once dreamed of, and the mother who uses her daughter as the adult companion her husband is not the parents who urge their children into accomplishments as status symbols-all these and many more are ways of subordinating a child's authentic self to a parent s needs.
Gloria Steinem
Go out and find your own stories.That is what I want to tell you.
Gloria Steinem
The first problem for all of us, men and women, is not to learn, but to unlearn.
Gloria Steinem
Law and justice are not always the same.
Gloria Steinem
Feminism has never been about getting a job for one woman. It's about making life more fair for women everywhere. It's not about a piece of the existing pie there are too many of us for that. It's about baking a new pie.
Gloria Steinem
If you're going to have a male dominant system, to maintain the system, you have to teach men to dominate.
Gloria Steinem
As a profession, freelance writing is notoriously insecure. That's the first argument in its favor. For many reasons, a few of them rational, the thought of knowing exactly what next year's accomplishments, routine, income, and vacation will be - or even what time I have to get up tomorrow morning - has always depressed me.
Gloria Steinem
For the reader who has put away comic books, but isn't yet ready for editorials in the Daily News.
Gloria Steinem
Women are always saying,We can do anything that men cando. But Men should be saying,We can do anything that women can do.
Gloria Steinem
Romance is a means to the end of self-completion, but love is an end in itself.
Gloria Steinem
Intelligence in the service of poor instinct is really dangerous.
Gloria Steinem
anything being perceived as being superior takes the noun. And everything that isn't, that's judged to be inferior, requires an adjective. So there are black novelists and novelists. There are women physicians and physicians. Male nurses and nurses.
Gloria Steinem
Now we know that women can do what men can do..., but we don't know that men can do what women can do.
Gloria Steinem
We need to stop raising boys to think that they need to prove their masculinity by being controlling or by not showing emotion or by not being little girls.
Gloria Steinem
The patterns that are normalized in the family - the whole idea that some people cook and some people eat, that some listen and others talk, and even that some people control others in very economic or even violent ways - that kind of hierarchy is what makes us vulnerable to believing in class hierarchy, to believing in racial hierarchy, and so on.
Gloria Steinem
More and more men are raising children or want to be close to their kids. They don't want to just lead work-obsessed lives and end up 50 years later with an engraved watch.
Gloria Steinem
Self-esteem isn't everything it's just that there's nothing without it.
Gloria Steinem
