ESTELLE R. RAMEY

Women's chains have been forged by men, not by anatomy.

I got personal satisfaction from making trouble for high-placed sexists and helping less lucky women fight the establishment

We will have equality when a female schlemiel moves ahead as fast as a male schlemiel.

Anyone seeing women at a bargain-basement sale where aggression is viewed as appropriate, even endearing, sees aggression that would make Attila the Hun turn pale

[Addressing a group of military officers:] Are you a feminist? Oh ... wrong question. I should have asked, 'Are you a father?' When your daughter loses her job to a clearly less-qualified man, you will discover you are a feminist.

All parents want their offspring to be exemplars of virtue and achievement and happiness. But most of all, we want desperately for you to be safe - safe from disease and violence and self-destruction.

What is human and the same about the males and females classified as Homo sapiens is much greater than the differences.

The only useful answer to the question 'Who is smarter, a man or a woman?' is, which man and which woman?

the recurrent drama of menstrual bleeding must have been unnerving to primitive peoples. In man, the shedding of blood is always associated with injury, disease, or death. Only the female half of humanity was seen to have the magical ability to bleed profusely and still rise phoenix-like each month from the gore.

I don't mind . . . the fun and games of being treated like a fragile flower. But as a physiologist working with the unromantic scientific facts of life, I find it hard to delude myself about feminine frailty.
