Feminism without femininity is a sham.
Alice von Hildebrand
Image
The woman who thinks she can choose femininity, can toy with it like the social drinker toys with wine - well, she's asking for it, asking to be undone, devoured, asking to spend her life perpetrating a new fraud, manufacturing a new fake identity, only this time it's her equality that's fake.
Rachel Cusk
Image
Authentic femininity is a combination of class, tenderness and virtue. When a woman possesses these traits, a man will naturally want to be more of a gentleman around her.
Jason Evert
Image
A man wants his virility regarded. A woman wants her femininity appreciated, however indirect and subtle the indications of regard and appreciation. [Here] one is respected and judged only as a human being. It is an appalling experience.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
I'm comfortable with my femininity, and I don't try to change what I look like just because I'm reporting on football at the end of the night.
Lisa Guerrero
Image
It is not possible for a man to be elegant without a touch of femininity.
Vivienne Westwood
Image
There's this idea that if you take your clothes off, somehow you must have loose morals. There's still a negative attitude in our society towards women who use a strength that's inherent - their femininity - in any way that might be considered seductive.
Demi Moore
Image
The biggest problem that women have is being ambivalent about their own power, ... We should be comfortable with the idea of wielding power. We shouldn't feel that it detracts from our femininity.
Elizabeth Wurtzel
Image
It is only through my daughter that I have come to realise that a life without femininity – devoid of mystery, emotion, gentleness and the unerring power of a woman’s love – is no life at all.
Antonella Gambotto-Burke
Image
Femininity and masculinity are social constructs. Female and male are biological. We don't have to learn to be men or women but we do have to learn to be ladies and gentlemen.
Rita Mae Brown
Image
Rage and bitterness do not foster femininity. They harden the heart and make the body sick.
Marion Woodman
Image
Masculinity cannot exist without femininity. On its own, masculinity has no meaning, because it is but one half of a set of power relations. Masculinity pertains to male dominance as femininity pertains to female subordination.
Sheila Jeffreys
Image
People of all sexes have the right to explore femininity, masculinity-and the infinite variations between-without criticism or ridicule.
Leslie Feinberg
Image
I don't know why femininity should be associated with weakness. Women should be free to express who they are without thinking, 'I need to act like a man, or I need to tone it down to be successful.' That's a very good way to keep women down.
Zooey Deschanel
Image
We can't automatically think about young women in makeup negatively. Sometimes a woman engages in these new forces and energies of beauty coming into her world. They can become tools. She's trying to express her femininity outwardly. I'm still learning too.
Nelly Furtado
Image
I've come to the conclusion that beautiful women in the West aren't comfortable finding strength in their femininity. They want to do masculine-oriented things to establish their femininity. It's a contradiction.
Wesley Snipes
Image
I thought it was very important that femininity wasn't lost.
Donna Mills
Image
When a woman starts out in the world on a mission, secular or religious, she should leave her feminine charms at home.
Jane Swisshelm
Image
A fragrance always combines femininity and sensuality.
Gianfranco Ferre
Image
I do not feel any less of a woman. I feel empowered that I made a strong choice that in no way diminishes my femininity.
Angelina Jolie
Image
I really want women to throw their shoulders back and stand up straight and use their big girl voices and not feel like they're compromising their femininity to be strong and smart.
Katie Aselton
Image
The first thing I look for in a woman is warmth-femininity. It's got nothing to do with a pretty face.
Kirk Douglas
Image
When one begins to think about it, America depends rather heavily on women's passive dependence, their femininity. Femininity, if one still wants to call it that, makes American women a target and a victim of the sexual sell.
Betty Friedan
Image
All of the women in music business understand that. They're fighting in a misogynist world. That's why they wear some elements of their femininity and have to blend it in with masculinity... it's a kind of protection. Somebody like Madonna is strong but soft. You have to be that way in this business.
Nelly Furtado
