“When men are oppressed, it's a tragedy. When women are oppressed, it's tradition.”

“Usually, when people talk about the "strength" of black women…. they ignore the reality that to be strong in the face of oppression is not the same as overcoming oppression, that endurance is not to be confused with transformation.”

“How can Crooked Hillary say she cares about women when she is silent on radical Islam, which horribly oppresses women?”

“The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people.”

“Because class oppression of women and children couched in the phraseology of "cute" it is much harder to fight than open oppression.”

“Religion is against women's rights and women's freedom. In all societies women are oppressed by all religions.”

“The nature of women's oppression is unique: women are oppressed as women, regardless of class or race; some women have access to significant wealth, but that wealth does not signify power; women are to be found everywhere, but own or control no appreciable territory; women live with those who oppress them, sleep with them, have their children — we are tangled, hopelessly it seems, in the gut of the machinery and way of life which is ruinous to us.”

“The tradition of the oppressed teaches us that the "state of emergency" in which we live is not the exception but the rule.”

“In their behavior toward creatures, all men are Nazis. Human beings see oppression vividly when they're the victims. Otherwise they victimize blindly and without a thought.”

“What I see is not a world of male oppression and female victimization but an international conspiracy by women to keep from men the knowledge of men's own frailty. A strange maternal protectiveness is at work.”
