Kate Millett Quotes

The Arbitrary Character Of Patriarchal Ascriptions Of Temperament And Role Has Little Effect Upon Their Power Over Us. Nor Do The Mutually Exclusive, Contradictory, And Polar Qualities Of The Categories "masculine" And "feminine" Imposed Upon Human Personality Give Rise To Sufficiently Serious Question Among Us. Under Their Aegis Each Personality Becomes Little More, And Often Less Than Half, Of Its Human Potential. Politically, The Fact That Each Group Exhibits A Circumscribed But Complementary Personality And Range Of Activity Is Of Secondary Importance To The Fact That Each Represents A Status Or Power Division. In The Matter Of Conformity Patriarchy Is A Governing Ideology Without Peer; It Is Probably That No Other System Has Ever Exercised Such A Complete Control Over Its Subjects.
