“All women do have a different sense of sexuality, or sense of fun, or sense of like what's sexy or cool or tough.”
Angelina Jolie
“To ask women to become unnaturally thin is to ask them to relinquish their sexuality.”
Naomi Wolf
“Cause if you're a transvestite, you're actually a male tomboy, that's where the sexuality is. Yeah, it's not drag queen, no; gay men have got that covered. This is male tomboy, and people do get that mixed up, they put transvestite there - no no no no! Little bit of a crowbar separation, thank you! And gay men, I think, would agree. It's male lesbian, that's really where it is, ok? Because… it's true! ‘Cause most transvestites fancy girls, fancy women. So that's where it is.”
Eddie Izzard

Sigmund Freud
“In lieu of creativity, there is an undue emphasis on sexuality”
Jay Christian Emerte
“In this society, the norm of masculinity is phallic aggression. Male sexuality is, by definition, intensely and rigidly phallic. A man's identity is located in his conception of himself as the possessor of a phallus; a man's worth is located in his pride in phallic identity. The main characteristic of phallic identity is that worth is entirely contingent on the possession of a phallus. Since men have no other criteria for worth, no other notion of identity, those who do not have phalluses are not recognized as fully human.”
Andrea Dworkin
“Fear of sexuality is the new, disease-sponsored register of the universe of fear in which everyone now lives.”
Susan Sontag
“At 60 the sexual preoccupation, when it hits you, seems sometimes sharper, as if it were an elderly malady, like gout.”
Edmund Wilson
“We, women, are not receptacles. Sex should not feel like a burden, duty, or chore. Sex is also not only about penetrative sex.”
