Gender Quotes

We live in a world where there are a hell of a lot of new inputs that need to be factored in to your business. It used to be just about your employees and your customers. Now there are all the issues about global warming, about sustainability, about ethics and now about gender and the distribution of wealth Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

... gender relationships, which are tough for people to deal with, are key to whether a society orients to domination or partnership in all its relations Picture Quote #1

Feminism is a belief that although women and men are inherently of equal worth, most societies privilege men as a group. As a result, social movements are necessary to achieve political equality between women and men, with the understanding that gender always intersects with other social hierarchies Picture Quote #1

We will ask two central questions throughout this course: 1. What difference does gender make? 2. For which women does it make a difference? Which women? Picture Quote #1

We have not always been forced to pass, to go underground, in order to work and live. We have a right to live openly and proudly... when our lives are suppressed, everyone is denied an understanding of the rich diversity of sex and gender expression and experience that exist in human society Picture Quote #1

No matter what your sexual preference or gender, no one likes a man who is fussy about his looks. You can spend as much time as you want looking good. But don’t do it in public Picture Quote #1

Defining men as the perpetrators of all violence is a viciously immoral judgment of an entire gender. And defining women as inherently nonviolent condemns us to the equally restrictive role of sweet, meek, and weak Picture Quote #1

Do we need recourse to a happier state before the law in order to maintain that contemporary gender relations and the punitive production of gender identities are oppressive? Picture Quote #1

Radical feminist theorists do not seek to make gender a bit more flexible, but to eliminate it. They are gender abolitionists, and understand gender to provide the framework and rationale for male dominance. In the radical feminist approach, masculinity is the behaviour of the male ruling class and femininity is the behaviour of the subordinate class of women. Thus gender can have no place in the egalitarian future that feminism aims to create Picture Quote #1

Women have talent and intelligence but, due to social constraints and prejudices, it is still a long distance away from the goal of gender equality Picture Quote #1

Women’s body language speaks eloquently, though silently, of her subordinate status in a hierarchy of gender Picture Quote #1

You don’t fall in love with a gender, you fall in love with a person Picture Quote #1

Calling gender violence a women’s issue is part of the problem. It gives a lot of men an excuse not to pay attention Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

If we’re going to address trafficking in our country we have to address poverty, racism and gender based violence Picture Quote #1

Part of the reason images of women in positions of authority are marked by their gender is that the very notion of authority is associated with maleness Picture Quote #1

Drag queen is a gender like no other, and with practice I’d learned to rise to it Picture Quote #1

I was a lonely, frightened little fat kid who felt there was something deeply wrong with me because I didn’t feel like I was the gender I’d been assigned. I felt there was something wrong with me, something sick and twisted inside me, something very very bad about me. And everything I read backed that up Picture Quote #1

Gender has always been considered a fact immutable. But we now know it’s actually more fluid, complex, and mysterious. Because of my success, I never have the courage to share my story. Not because I thought what I am is wrong but because of how the world treats those of us who wish to break free Picture Quote #1

I never pay attention to age or gender. There are just too many other more important things to consider Picture Quote #1

There’s no such thing as sexism against men. That’s because sexism is prejudice power. Men are the dominant gender with power in society Picture Quote #1

The problem with gender is that it prescribes how we should be, rather than recognising how we are Picture Quote #1

Your gender identity is who you are. Sexual identity is who you bounce that off of Picture Quote #1

Gender, race, ethnicity – these are all morally neutral. But homosexuality is – involves voluntary sexual conduct with serious public health, social, sociological implications. It’s not irrational to discriminate on that basis Picture Quote #1

A family is a family not because of gender but because of values, like commitment, trust and love Picture Quote #1

I believe profoundly in the possibilities of democracy, but democracy needs to be emancipated from capitalism. As long as we inhabit a capitalist democracy, a future of racial equality, gender equality, economic equality will elude us Picture Quote #1

There is a clear difference between sexist parody and parody of sexism. Sexist parody encourages the players to mock and trivialize gender issues while parody of sexism disrupts the status quo and undermines regressive gender conventions Picture Quote #1

We are born as who we are, the gender thing is something that is imposed on you Picture Quote #1

I read the books and I really, really wanted to play the part. I started kundalini yoga, kickboxing and running, and completely changed my diet. I felt I wanted to undergo what was necessary for the part. I love a challenge. And I love defying limitation, gender stereotypes and people’s expectations of me as an actress Picture Quote #1
