Text Quotes
One feels so despairing on some levels about what’s going on in our culture, in regards to things like gender inequality. But there is progress. There is enhanced empathy and respect for others, we are fighting the tide, even though it seems like a tug of war sometimes.  (Gender Quotes) The historical weight of gender inequality has tended to concentrate women in lower-paid jobs with fewer benefits and at the same time made them primarily responsible for care giving.  (Gender Quotes) I think there’s so many things happening, whether it’s gender inequality or immigration, there’s just so many issues happening around the world where not doing anything makes you guilty.  (Gender Quotes) We want to end gender inequality, and to do this, we need everyone involved...We want to try to galvanize as many men and boys as possible to be advocates for change and we don’t just want to talk about it. We want to try and make sure that it’s tangible.  (Gender Quotes) If a person is homosexual by nature - that is, if one’s sexuality is as intrinsic a part of one’s identity as gender or skin color - then society can no more deny a gay person access to the secular rights and religious sacraments because of his homosexuality than it can reinstate Jim Crow.  (Gender Quotes) We had the fun of being outlaws. But there’s a whole generation now coming up with new gender identities. For this generation of kids who don’t think that being gay is anything special, they might be more interesting than any of us.  (Gender Quotes) To parents who find a child’s disclosure about sexual or gender identity challenging, I always urge what I’d call moderated honesty. If you can’t say I love you, then say something like, I’m going to need some time to digest this news. Buy time this way. And then think.  (Gender Quotes) I confused gender identity with sexual orientation. Your gender identity is about who you are, how you feel, the sex that you feel yourself to be. Sexual orientation is who you’re attracted to.  (Gender Quotes) In some states, a very small number of states, it is illegal to discriminate against someone on the basis of their gender identity, transgender identification. In the vast majority, it is perfectly legal.  (Gender Quotes) Homophobia’s just one form of abjection, and wherever you have a marker of deviance - skin colour, gender, gender identity, disability - you get the same mechanisms of prejudice.  (Gender Quotes) All young people, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity, need someone who’s got their back.  (Gender Quotes) So when I was about 13 or 14, I realized I was attracted to women and then made the assumption that I was a lesbian, and didn’t realize that that wasn’t the case. It was the fact that I was a man and a heterosexual man. The issue wasn’t my sexual orientation, but rather my gender identity.  (Gender Quotes) I don’t think about the gender of my readers or about reader expectations. I’m frankly scared to. I figured out a long time ago that if I tried to guess the audience, it would be like me trying to guess which stocks to buy.  (Gender Quotes) A lot of kids are bullied because of their sexual identity or expression. It’s often the effeminate boys and the masculine girls, the ones who violate gender norms and expectations, who get bullied.  (Gender Quotes) I love a challenge. And I love defying limitation, gender stereotypes, and people’s expectations of me as an actress.  (Gender Quotes) The problem with gender is that it prescribes how we should be rather than recognizing how we are. Imagine how much happier we would be, how much freer to be our true individual selves, if we didn’t have the weight of gender expectations.  (Gender Quotes) MMI brothers were very resistant to women such as Lynn Shiflet and others who emerged as leaders within the OAAU, so one of the tensions that occurred was around gender equality and gender leadership inside of Malcolm’s X entourage.  (Gender Quotes) Power relations between men and women must change profoundly, men must be partners in the pursuit of gender equality, in their decision-making roles, as heads of state, CEOs, religious and cultural leaders, and as partners and parents.  (Gender Quotes) The enemy of feminism isn’t men. It’s patriarchy, and patriarchy is not men. It is a system, and women can support the system of patriarchy just as men can support the fight for gender equality.  (Gender Quotes) There is one lesson from the past, in particular, that we cannot afford to ignore: You cannot make progress on gender equality or broader human development without safeguarding women’s reproductive health and rights.  (Gender Quotes) We come from the future, essentially, because we have all these ideas about gender equality, sexual freedom, and these are not shared by the working class, the peasantry among whom we work.  (Gender Quotes) How about we get rid of separate bathrooms for boys and girls? Gays and straights share the bathroom with zero issues. We need to put an end to the sexist pooping policies of yesterday. The only way to achieve gender equality is to start crapping in front of each other.  (Gender Quotes) We are people, individuals comprising a variety of sexes, races, shifting sexualities and all the rest of it. Every convention that tries to reinforce this difference is a step back. Notions of gender pointlessly separate men from women, but also mothers from daughters and fathers from sons.  (Gender Quotes) When I got to be a CEO, I said: ‘Right. I’m now going to tackle gender inequality head-on. I’m going to make a difference and lead by example and actively put in place policies and practices to support women.’  (Gender Quotes) Eating is our earliest metaphor, preceding our consciousness of gender difference, race, nationality, and language. We eat before we talk.  (Gender Quotes) If I can use my platform to affect change in gender, as I can in race, then I think I can have an impact.  (Gender Quotes) I think it is too hard for men to talk about gender. We have to let men talk about this... because we need men to talk about this if it is ever going to change.  (Gender Quotes) In particular, I want to set a challenge to public bodies and private companies to improve gender balance on their own boards.  (Gender Quotes) The gaming industry is a fairly liberal, hip place, and if you’re making games people really don’t care what your gender is. At least this has been my experience.  (Gender Quotes) Some version of ‘Deal or No Deal’ airs in 120 countries. And they play it exactly the same way, with models and briefcases. It crosses language and culture and gender, because it’s the simplest game in the world, and everyone wants to press their luck.  (Gender Quotes)
