Since I've been in Playboy myself in Australia, I love it, and I think it's really empowering and positive towards women, which is not a view that many women hold.

I love Robin Wright. Kristin Wiig! I love those two women.

Whenever women catfight, men think it's going to turn to sex.
When women hold off from marrying men, we call it independence. When men hold off from marrying women, we call it fear of commitment.
We have been suckered into believing that, because there are more men at the top than women at the top, that this is a result of discrimination against women. That's been the misconception. It's all about trade-offs. You earn more money, you usually sacrifice something at home.
All short women have a delayed fuse. Marry a taller woman: My wife was an inch or two taller than me; it's a sign of security.
The faces of most American women over thirty are relief maps of petulant and bewildered unhappiness.
I'll always prefer to play with women and hang out with women, and I'll always be a feminist.
I think it's so funny when people think they can't control a movie star. They can. We're just women, you know.
Most women have learned a great deal about how to set goals for our First Adulthood and how to roll with the punches when we hit a rough passage. But we're less prepared for our Second Adulthood as we approach life after retirement, where there are no fixed entrances or exits, and lots of sand into which it is easy to bury our heads.

If supporters of equality for women want to vote for the best candidate, they must look to a person regardless of gender and must disregard the gender of political opponents.
With my early work I got eviscerated by my male professors, and so you learned to disguise your impulses, as many women have done. And that's definitely changed.
If actors can show their abs, why can't women show their bikini bods?
On the whole, I think women wear too much and are to fussy. You can't see the person for all the clutter.
