More quotes by Gloria Steinem
Liberation does not come from outside.
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
I've only ever met one woman who actually was a prostitute of her own free will. She didn't have a pimp. She could pick and choose her customers. That's so rare.
Gloria Steinem
I never expected to be even busier at 81, and doing more of what I love, than when I was 30.
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
There's one logical generational difference and that is that young women will have more chances to support a female president than older women. Older women feel it's their last chance, so that's just a factual, obvious difference. But other than that it depends on experience, on individual experience.
Gloria Steinem
We all know as we travel around this country or around the world that there are huge problems, and also people doing amazing things on the ground - but those people rarely get reported. Our media are so into conflict that they sometimes say to me, Bring an 'anti' with you.
Gloria Steinem
The most common characteristic of women's history is to be lost and discovered, lost again and rediscovered, lost once more and re-rediscovered - a process of tragic waste and terrible silences that will continue until women's stories are a full and equal part of the human story.
Gloria Steinem
Labeling makes the invisible visible, but it's limiting. Categories are the enemy of connecting. Link, don't rank.
Gloria Steinem
Everyone is unique and each experience is different.
Gloria Steinem
There's more variation among human groups than between human groups.
Gloria Steinem
When unique voices are united in a common cause, they make history.
Gloria Steinem
It's especially ridiculous to think you have to be successful when you're so young. You should be able to adventure and not worry so much about achievement.
Gloria Steinem
I do think it's important that there are feminist publications that are not dependent or only marginally dependent on advertising.
Gloria Steinem
It used to be said that this country was a child-centered one. Nothing could be further from the truth. Children have been our lowest priority, both in economic and emotional spending.
Gloria Steinem
Self-esteem isn't everything it's just that there's nothing without it.
Gloria Steinem
Like art, revolutions come from combining what exists into what has never existed before.
Gloria Steinem
The nineteenth-century wave of feminism was started by older women who had been through the radicalizing experience of getting married and becoming the legal chattel of their husbands (or the equally radicalizing experience of not getting married and being treated as spinsters).
Gloria Steinem
It's a fundamental human right to decide to have children or not to have children.
Gloria Steinem
Whatever you want to do,do it now.
