"Power can be taken, but not given. The process of the taking is empowerment in itself."
"A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle."
"We are talking about a society in which there will be no roles, but only people."
"A liberated woman is one who has sex before marriage and a career after."
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.
