Jessica Valenti Quotes

Young Women Are Not Putting Themselves In Danger. The People Around Them Are Doing The Real Damage. Who? You Might Wonder. The Abstinence Teacher Who Tells Her Students That They'll Go To Jail If They Have Premarital Sex. The Well-founded Organization That Tells Girls On College Campuses That They Should Be Looking For A Husband, Not Taking Women's Studies Classes. The Judge Who Rules Against A Rape Survivor Because She Didn't Meet Whatever Standard For A Victim He Had In Mind. The Legislator Who Pushes A Bill To Limit Young Women's Access To Abortion Because He Doesn't Think They're Smart Enough To Make Their Own Decisions. These Are The People Who Are Making The World A Worse Place, And A More Dangerous One, At That, For Girls And Young Women. We're Just Doing Our Best To Live In It.
