Being a man I loved Germaine Greer. I liked her ballsiness, outspokenness and the fact that she always stood up for the underdog. She was said to be a feminist but really she is just after fairness and equality. What’s to argue with that?
I love the furore the Female Eunuch created.
I loved more the fact that she purchased a chunk of rainforest in Queensland and is doing her bit to protect the wilderness.
A great woman.
Loneliness is never more cruel than when it is felt in close propinquity with someone who has ceased to communicate.
When relationships break down it is dismal.
Freedom is fragile and must be protected. To sacrifice it, even as a temporary measure, is to betray it.
Too many people take things for granted. They walk blindfold into the future. Freedoms are hard fought for and easily lost.
Security is when everything is settled, when nothing can happen to you; security is the denial of life.
Adventure is what life is about. It’s dangerous.
The surest guide to the correctness of the path that women take is joy in the struggle. Revolution is the festival of the oppressed.
We sure need some revolution right now!
The management of fertility is one of the most important functions of adulthood.
Too true. Not only does it give choices, empowerment and control the growth of population, it allows women to have a career, a life and equality.
Human beings have an inalienable right to invent themselves; when that right is pre-empted it is called brain-washing.
That is what we are doing to children all the time! They are being brain-washed.
You’re only young once, but you can be immature forever.
Thank heavens.
All societies on the verge of death are masculine. A society can survive with only one man; no society will survive a shortage of women.
The emancipation of women world-wide is our only hope for the future. Man’s aggression, greed and selfishness needs tempering.
I didn’t fight to get women out from behind vacuum cleaners to get them onto the board of Hoover.
We all need a worthwhile life!
Freud is the father of psychoanalysis. It has no mother.
Any volunteers?
Thanks for reminding me of her wit.
You’re welcome Georgina.
She was a force of power in her day – still is when she gets a head of steam up
She sure is. I like that.
She is basically a political anarchist determined to do what she wants , but then she joins the great brigade of respectable anarchists who fight tooth and nail for freedom regardless of the consequences.
Some things are worth fighting for Kertsen.
But suppose the things your fighting for are causing planet damage . This is now happening with tourism a world wide plague of people determined to go when ever and where ever they please. Naturally they are among the world’s top 1% and book flights where ever they wish to go.
Now to stop them would devastate the poor who depend on their money so we are in a catch 22 situation . Mind you catch 22 situations are all around us as the weather clouds gather .
There are many dilemmas Kertsen. We have to find our way through the muddle with passion, morality and wise choices.
