More from Gloria Steinem
"We are talking about a society in which there will be no roles other than those chosen or those earned."
"The idea that women are 'our own worst enemies' forces us to admit that we don't have the power to be, even if we wanted too."
"Also, one of the simplest paths to deep change is for the less powerful to speak as much as they listen, and for the more powerful to listen as much as they speak."
"Power can be taken, but not given. The process of the taking is empowerment in itself."
"Sometimes I think the only real division into two is between people who divide everything into two and those who don't."
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.
