“God made man stronger but not necessarily more intelligent. He gave women intuition and femininity. And, used properly, that combination easily jumbles the brain of any man I've ever met.”
Farrah Fawcett
“Unlike femininity, relaxed masculinity is at bottom empty, a limp nullity. While the female body is full of internal potentiality, the male is internally barren. Manhood at the most basic level can be validated and expressed only in action.”
George Gilder
“A woman may develop wrinkles and cellulite, lose her waistline, her bustline, her ability to bear a child, even her sense of humor, but none of that implies a loss of her sexuality, her femininity”
Barbara Gordon
“Most people compliment me on maintaining my femininity while I'm on the court. People like the fact that I model. My fans or little girls always say they want to play sports, but also want to be a model like me and I think that's great.”
Lisa Leslie
“Not even girls want to be girls so long as our feminine archetype lacks force, strength, and power. Not wanting to be girls, they don't want to be tender, submissive, peace-loving as good women are. Women's strong qualities have become despised because of their weakness. The obvious remedy is to create a feminine character with all the strength of Superman plus all the allure of a good and beautiful woman.”
William Moulton Marston
“When she stopped conforming to the conventional picture of femininity she finally began to enjoy being a woman”
Betty Friedan
“Purity is the feminine, truth the masculine of honor.”
David Hare
“I'm more attracted to a stronger man rather than a feminine man. Someone who would just throw me down and take control. I love feeling helpless. I definitely like a man who is aggressive and confident.”
Carmen Electra
“Feminine passion is to masculine as an epic is to an epigram”
Karl Kraus
“Only when manhood is dead - and it will perish when ravaged femininity no longer sustains it - only then will we know what it is to be free.”
Andrea Dworkin
