Even a single lamp dispels the darkness.
Ghandi
Speeches by Women 21
Reasons we are a part of the women's liberation movement
Because women's work is never done
and it is underpaid or unpaid or boring or repetitious
and we're the first to get fired
and what we look like is more imporant than what we do
and if we get raped it's our fault
and if we get beaten we must have provoked it
and if we raise our voices we're nagging bitches
and if we enjoy sex we're nymphos
and if we don't we're frigid
and if we love women it's because we can't get a 'real' man
and if we ask our doctor too many questions we're neurotic and/or pushy
and if we expect childcare we're selfish
and if we stand up for our rights we're aggressive and 'unfeminine'
and if we don't we're typical weak females
and if we want to get married we're out to trap a man
and if we don't we're unnatural
and because we still can't get an adequate safe contraceptive but men can walk on the moon
and if we can't cope or don't want a pregnancy we're made to feel guilty about abortion
and...for lots and lots of other reasons we are part of the women's liberation movement.
