What is feminism? A infame F word....

Feminismo, s. m., defesa da igualdade de direitos entre mulheres e homens. (de www.colectivofeminista.blogspot.com)

"Feminism is a social movement whose goal is to eliminate the oppression of women in all its forms."
- Amy Kesselman, in Women: Images & Realities, 1996

"Feminism is the radical notion that women are human beings", Cheris Kramerae, author of A Feminist Dictionary, 1996.

"Feminism is an attack upon social opinion wherever it discriminates in its attitude toward man and woman on the basis of sex." George Middleton, early 20th-century playwright, speaking in 1914.

"Feminism has fought no wars. It has killed no opponents. It has set up no concentration camps, starved no enemies, practiced no cruelties. Its battles have been for education, for the vote, for better working conditions.. for safety on the streets... for child care, for social welfare...for rape crisis centers, women's refuges, reforms in the law." (If someone says) 'Oh, I'm not a feminist,' (I ask) 'Why? What's your problem?'" Dale Spender, author of For the Record: The Making & Meaning of Feminist Knowledge, 1985

feminismo e divórcio:

If divorce has increased by one thousand percent, don't blame the women's movement. Blame the obsolete sex roles on which our marriages were based. Betty Friedan, 1974
