More from Gloria Steinem
"The most dangerous place for a woman is in the home."
"We are so different, yet so much the same."
"Roots can exist without flowers, but no flower can exist without roots. Religion may be a flower, but people are its roots."
"When I was hosting the Today show, I had a little fat removed from above my eyes so I didn't look like Mao Zedong and I could wear my contacts. It looked worse afterward."
"Perhaps the most revolutionary act for a woman will be a self-willed journey—and to be welcomed when she comes home."
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.
