I think all beautiful women have a clean look. They like things that are simple.
I think that in many ways, gays are behind women and behind blacks, as far as rights go. But I always say, if you know one of us, it’s hard to hate us.
I love empowering women. I think it’s crazy: if you ever try to belittle women, you’re playing yourself – I ride with whoever rides with me.
Black culture, to me, is so important and I identify with young black women.
Women tend to be conservative in youth and get more radical as they get older because they lose power with age. So if a young woman is not a feminist, I say, ‘Just wait.’
Women should not have to adopt masculine traits in order to succeed. You should be able to stay as a woman, and in tune with your femininity, and still be equal.
Black women’s intersectional experiences of racism and sexism have been a central but forgotten dynamic in the unfolding of feminist and antiracist agendas.
A lot of people assume that women of a certain age who are not unattractive have no excuse for not having a perfect life. But you can have emotional baggage that is dragging you down like cement blocks tied to your feet.
I just want to say to women, ‘Be yourself – it’s the inner beauty that counts. You are your own best friend, the key to your own happiness, and as soon as you understand that – and it takes a few heartbreaks – you can be happy.’
I’m really interested in women, particularly the kind of black woman who has overcome obstacles in her life and transformed.
Women like me. Women love me. But not so my wife need worry. Not in a ‘he’s so hot’ type of way. More in a ‘come round for a cup of tea’ way.
Women are systematically degraded by receiving the trivial attentions which men think it manly to pay to the sex, when, in fact, men are insultingly supporting their own superiority.
There’s so much pressure on women to have it all together. There’s always this ‘next, next, next.’ I hope Glossier encourages women to be O.K. wherever you are. Just, everyone, relax!
Western women have been controlled by ideals and stereotypes as much as by material constraints.
Cinematography speaks to everything that women do inherently well: It’s multitasking, it’s empathy, and it’s channeling visuals into human emotion.
For Jesus, there are no countries to be conquered, no ideologies to be imposed, no people to be dominated. There are only children, women and men to be loved.
Especially in this industry, women challenge men much more now because we’re saying, ‘We can do it, too.’
Financial inclusion helps lift people out of poverty and can help speed economic development. It can draw more women into the mainstream of economic activity, harnessing their contributions to society.
To me, women have always been the sturdiest people in my life and have been incredible sources of energy.
I want to organize so that women see ourselves as people who are entitled to power, entitled to leadership.
People forget the punk thing was really good for women. It motivated them to pick up a guitar rather than be a chanteuse. It allowed us to be aggressive.
I’ve been sexy for a while. Ever since I crossed 30, women have started taking me seriously.
Faithful women are all alike, they think only of their fidelity, never of their husbands.
Like so many women, I was living out the unlived life of my mother – so I wouldn’t be her. But the price I paid was that I distanced myself internally.
Because society would rather we always wore a pretty face, women have been trained to cut off anger.
