Simone De Beauvoir Quotes

Women's Actions Have Never Been More Than Symbolic Agitation; They Have Won Only What Men Have Been Willing To Concede To Them; They Have Taken Nothing; They Have Received.5 It Is That They Lack The Concrete Means To Organize Themselves Into A Unit That Could Posit Itself In Opposition. They Have No Past, No History, No Religion Of Their Own; And Unlike The Proletariat, They Have No Solidarity Of Labor Or Interests; They Even Lack Their Own Space That Makes Communities Of American Blacks, The Jews In Ghettos, Or The Workers In Saint-Denis Or Renault Factories. They Live Dispersed Among Men, Tied By Homes, Work, Economic Interests, And Social Conditions To Certain Men - Fathers Or Husbands - More Closely Than To Other Women. As Bourgeois Women, They Are In Solidarity With Bourgeois Men And Not With Women Proletarians; As White Women, They Are In Solidarity With White Men And Not With Black Women.
