Actually I call them Simon and Garfunkel because one’s bigger than the other.—but
A szőr a női lét egyik legelső és legnagyobb gondja. Hívatlanul jelenik meg, úgyhogy döntést kell hozni róla – ami magunknak és a külvilágnak is azt jelzi, kik vagyunk. Mivel a kamaszkorral kezdődik a...
A rohadék nemi hormonok pajkos gyermekből vérző, bőgő, ájuldozó mosónővé változtattak. Ezektől a hormonoktól egyáltalán nem érzem magam nőiesnek: minden éjjel nyomorultan fekszem az ágyamban, és a bug...
Those boys throw gravel at me while I ran up a hill – but I don't want my diary to pity me. As far as my diary will know, I had the philosophical upper hand there.
Después de miles de años de machismo de mierda) Como es natural, las personas que han estado psicológicamente machacadas no empiezan a hacer cosas gloriosas, seguras, ostentosas nada más ser liberadas...
Úgy döntöttem, hogy ha női cipőkről van szó, lényegében sztrájkolok. Kiszállok az egész cipellő-világból, amíg nem képesek valami olyat tervezni, amiben több mint egy órán át lehet járni a táncra perd...
You actually don’t exist while you’re in your bedroom, I say to the dog, so that she knows this important fact. Teenage girls in bedrooms aren’t real.
Yes, an old-fashioned feminist consciousness-raising still has enormous value. When the subject turns to abortion, cosmetic intervention, birth, motherhood, sex, love, work, misogyny, fear, or just ho...
Women, it is presumed, will always end up having babies. They might go through silly, adolescent phases of pretending that it’s something that they have no interest in – but, when push comes to shove,...
With mounting concern, I learned that having a £600 handbag is like having a crush on the Joker in Batman. You MUST do it. It is an irreducible fact of being a woman.
When the subject turns to abortion, cosmetic intervention, birth, motherhood, sex, love, work, misogyny, fear, or just how you feel in your own skin, women still won’t often tell the truth to each oth...
When a woman walks into a room, her outfit is the first thing she says, before she even opens her mouth. Women are judged on what they wear in a way men would find incomprehensible.
There's no self-expression or joy in these joints-- no springboard to self-discovery, or adventure, like any decent night out involving men, women, alcohol, and taking your clothes off. Why do many pe...
Robert Johnson invented the blues, at midnight, at a crossroads, after selling his soul to the devil. Dorothy Parker invented amusing women, at 2 p.m., in New York’s best cocktail bar, after tipping a...
Quite how a heterosexual couple hiring a female cleaner ends up as a betrayal of feminism isn't terribly clear- unless you believe running a household is, in some way:a. an inarguable duty of womenkin...
Por algum motivo, o mundo realmente quer saber quando uma mulher vai ter filhos. Todos gostam quando elas planejam essa merda cedo. Querem que elas sejam muito claras e decididas em relação a isso — A...
Pero lo que no había esperado eran las caras: las caras de las mujeres. Los rostros de los hombres eran lo que cabía imaginar; famosos o no famosos, los hombres parecen…, bueno, eso, hombres. Hombres...
Our new budget now, with no wriggle room for anything extra—not a pot of jam, or a new pair of shoes. We cannot do anything other than stay very still. We are on 11 percent less of was-never-enough-in...
One is not born a woman—one becomes one, she didn’t know the half of it.
Nem vagy múzsának való, gondoltam végül bánatosan a 18. születésnapomon, ahogy szemügyre vettem a világot, amelyet egyáltalán nem ihlettem meg. Nem vagyok királylány. Nem vagyok múzsa. Ha meg akarom v...
