Andrea Dworkin

Childbearing is glorified in part because women die from it.

The will to domination is a ravenous beast. There are never enough warm bodies to satiate its monstrous hunger. Once alive, this beast grows and grows, feeding on all the life around it, scouring the earth to find new sources of nourishment. This beast lives in each man who battens on female servitude.

Heterosexual intercourse is the pure, formalized expression of contempt for women's bodies.

Sexism is the foundation on which all tyranny is built. Every social form of hierarchy and abuse is modeled on male-over-female domination.

The essence of oppression is that one is defined from the outside by those who define themselves as superior by criteria of their own choice.
