Quotes by Dale Spender

“When women are supposed to be quiet, a talkative woman is a woman who talks at all”

“Women’s humor is part of the revolution.”

“Language helps form the limits of our reality”

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 in the streets, for child care, for social welfare, for rape crisis centres, womens refuges, reforms in the law. If someone says, Oh, Im not a feminist, I ask, Why? Whats your problem?
