More from Gloria Steinem
"Sometimes I think the only real division into two is between people who divide everything into two and those who don't."
"It's not about being a victim, it's about being a survivor."
"There are two kinds of people: those who say, 'I'll believe it when I see it,' and those who say, 'To see it, I must believe it.'"
"The future depends entirely on what each of us does every day."
"Any woman who chooses to behave like a full human being should be warned that the armies of the status quo will treat her as something of a dirty joke."
About Gloria Steinem (born 1934)
American second-wave feminist organizer, journalist, and Ms. magazine co-founder who shaped 1970s feminist politics. Closely associated with Betty Friedan (The Feminine Mystique author) and Bella Abzug (feminist Congresswoman). For an intellectual contrast, see Phyllis Schlafly, conservative activist and Eagle Forum founder — Schlafly's grassroots STOP-ERA campaign defeated the Equal Rights Amendment Steinem championed — they were the public faces of the 1970s gender debate from opposite sides.
