Nancy Friday Quotes

Our Feelings About Menstruation Are The Image Of What It Is To Be A Woman In This Culture. While Menstruation And The Fear Of Revealing Evidence Of Loss Of Body Control Bear Possibilities Of Humiliation For Women Of Which Men Are Not Aware, It Is Humiliating Too To Be That Sex Whose Voice And Presence Carry Less Significance. It Is Humiliating To Speak The Same Words As A Man And Have His Heard, And Not Yours. It Is Humiliating To Feel Invisible When God Gave You A Body As Solid As His. It Is Humiliating That Women Are Accorded Little Dignity Unless They Are Married. We Twist These Humiliations Around, Of Course, And Say It Is Glorious To Have A Man Fight Our Battles For Us, Put Us On A Pedestal, Take Care Of Us. It Is, If You Enjoy Being Dependent On Someone Else.
