“Romantic love, in pornography as in life, is the mythic celebration of female negation. For a woman, love is defined as her willingness to submit to her own annihilation…. The proof of love is that she is willing to be destroyed by the one whom she loves, for his sake. For the woman, love is always self-sacrifice, the sacrifice of identity, will, and bodily integrity, in order to fulfill and redeem the masculinity of her lover.”

“For women, love is always a form of self-sacrifice and integrity. The willingness to accept the consequences of the expectations she builds in the name of love. Willingness to always obey, not to resist in any situation against male domination and hegemony. Because for women it is a form of proof of their love.”

“She's a woman in love
And he's gonna break her heart to pieces.
She don't want to see.
She's a woman in love, but it's not me.”

“Pornography is definitely not a reflection of real life. Accepted or rejected, it will always be at odds. However, sexual expression in pornography is a celebration of the denial of women's dignity. For a man, it is an affirmation of the myth of masculinity to dominate, to rule and to show his might. Conversely, for a woman, sex must be accepted as a form of willingness to be submissive, to submit to the destruction of her own dignity. In pornography there is no love, no passion or drama. There is only manipulation of the body, the mind and the lowly human desire to be satisfied. That humans cannot be separated from animalistic lust.”

“A woman whose lover resigns her, and as if for her own sake, though without consulting her, is placed in a most awkward situation. What can she do? Take him at his word? That is easy to say, but hard to do, when all the hopes and affections are garnered in his love.”

“Kentucky woman
She shines with her own kind of light.
She'd look at you once
And a day that's all wrong looks all right.
And I love her, God knows, I love her.Kentucky woman,
If she get to know you,
She goin' to own you.
Kentucky woman.”

“It is a vulgar error that love, a love, to Woman is her whole existence; she also is born for Truth and Love in their universal energy.”

“Love is a verb. Love – the feeling – is the fruit of love the verb or our loving actions. So love her. Sacrifice. Listen to her. Empathize. Appreciate. Affirm her.”

“"But tell me how it is that she could be so beautiful without any heart at all — without any place even for a heart to live in." "I cannot quite tell," she said; "but I am sure she would not look so beautiful if she did not take means to make herself look more beautiful than she is. And then, you know, you began by being in love with her before you saw her beauty … But the chief thing that makes her beautiful is this: that, although she loves no man, she loves the love of any man; and when she finds one in her power, her desire to bewitch him and gain his love (not for the sake of his love either, but that she may be conscious anew of her own beauty, through the admiration he manifests), makes her very lovely—with a self-destructive beauty…"”

“Sometimes a woman's love of being loved gets the better of her conscience, and though she is agonized at the thought of treating a man cruelly, she encourages him to love her while she doesn't love him at all. Then, when she sees him suffering, her remorse sets in, and she does what she can to repair the wrong.”
