Feminist Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Feminist:

As a result of the feminist revolution, 'feminine' becomes an abusive epithet. Wyndham Lewis

I didn't even know how much of a feminist I was, and I realized, 'Oh my God, I was raised by a single mom who had to raise six kids. I have three sisters. Larry, you've been a feminist your whole life, and you really didn't know it until you've been presented with these issues.'

Larry Wilmore

My mom was sarcastic about men. She would tell me Adam was the rough draft and Eve was the final product. She was a feminist minister, an earth mom who wore a bra only on Sundays.

Daphne Zuniga

When the Taliban took over in 1996, the news of their crimes hit the Toronto papers. As a feminist and as an anti-war activist, I heard about what was happening to women, and I wanted to do something to support those folks.

Deborah Ellis

I am a feminist. Women are discriminated against in so many ways, and they make up half the population.

John Legend

I work toward the liberation of women, but I'm not feminist. I'm just a woman.

Buchi Emecheta

The ideal feminist world shouldn't be one where women suppress their human instincts for attention and desire. We shouldn't be weighed down with the responsibility of explaining our every move. We shouldn't have to apologize for wanting attention, either. We don't owe anyone an explanation.

Emily Ratajkowski

I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat or a prostitute.

Rebecca West

I have never experienced racism in the feminist movement, so it concerned me to think that I was unable to see the subject clearly because I came from white, middle-class privilege.

Betty Buckley

People were always able to look at Bettie Page and see what they needed her to be and she gave them that permission to do so. So in that way she's a feminist but I don't think she was ever trying to be.

Gretchen Mol

I've heard people say to me, 'How can you claim to be a feminist when you dress like that?' I wear a lot of slip dresses and nightwear and stuff. People always question my credibility because of that: 'Oh, are you selling sex? Are you doing this or that to be recognized more or to sell your music?' No, it's just a fashion thing for me.

Charli XCX

I was put out there as a spokesperson for the new feminist revolution. It was very difficult because I was either too feminist or not feminist enough, depending on who you spoke to.

Sarah McLachlan

I suppose it's the feminist in me, but I didn't always associate modelling with an intelligent career. I used to put myself down for doing it.

Daria Werbowy

I don't label myself a feminist. I love men, but I am all about promoting a better, healthier relationship between the sexes.

Liz Goldwyn

Remember that in the early days of the feminist movement, they refused to have a leader; different women would just stand up and speak. The early feminists were very careful to not put what was spontaneously arising back in the old bottle.

James Hillman

I don't think that the feminist movement has done much for the characters of women.

Doris Lessing

There was a bad patch in the '80s and early '90s when feminist thinking had become sort of a monopoly and had developed a series of litmus tests.

Naomi Wolf

My parents divorced when I was born, and my mother is a political science professor, like a feminist Mormon, which is sort of an oxymoron.

Eliza Dushku

I consider myself a feminist because I believe women should have equal rights. Of course. It's just that the term 'feminism' conjures up other things for people.

Marina and the Diamonds

To me, a feminist belongs in the same category as a humanist or an advocate for human rights. I don't see why someone who's a feminist should be thought of differently.

Suzanne Vega

I find a lot of feminist reading quite confusing and that often there's a set of rules, and people will be like, 'Oh, this person isn't a true feminist because they don't embody this one thing,' and I don't know, often it can be a gray area, and it can be a hard thing to navigate.

Lorde

A good part - and definitely the most fun part - of being a feminist is about frightening men.

Julie Burchill

I write for women because it's the only way I can use what I've experienced. It's good that people like what I write, but I don't want to go down the feminist path.

Jennifer Saunders

I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is: I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat.

Rebecca West

My number-one goal is to never feel like I'm strictly defining myself. The minute I feel like I'm doing that as anything - as theatrical, as feminist, as songwriter - I feel like the minute I name it, I'm stuck in a box.

Amanda Palmer

I wouldn't call myself a feminist, because I think there are differences between men and women.

Shania Twain

Womanist is to feminist as purple is to lavender.

Alice Walker

You come to a point where you give up on holding yourself to a perfect feminist ideal - it just feels stifling.

Jessica Valenti

Being a feminist is being equal to do what a man do.

Cardi B

Quite frankly, I talk about the fact that I'm a feminist as often as I can, and every time I do, it gets huge reaction, and media reacts, and the Twitterverse explodes and things like that, because here I am saying I'm a feminist. I will keep saying that until there is no more reaction to that when I say it, because that's where we want to get to.

Justin Trudeau

I am most certainly a feminist.

Brenda Brathwaite

I wanted to be an actress. In college I was a serious feminist and very political. I was determined to get one thing out of my career and that was respect. I didn't want money. I didn't care about fame.

Christine Lahti

There were some films I refused because the feminist aspect was a bit wonky.

Julie Christie

I am a humanist not a feminist. There's a big difference.

Lydia Lunch

I've always been a strong feminist and felt that the image of models was detrimental to women. That whole thing really bothered me. I would think about quitting about once a week.

Saffron Burrows

I'd rather be a lady of the evening than a feminist.

Wendy Long

I don't know why it's still a taboo to be a feminist.

Gemma Arterton
