“The problem wasn’t only with the women…The main problem was with the men. There was nothing for them anymore...there was nothing for them to do with women…there was nothing to work for…nothing to fight for…You know what men were complaining about the most? Inability to feel.”

“Maybe none of this is about control. Maybe it isn't really about who can own whom, who can do what to whom and get away with it, even as far as death. Maybe it isn't about who can sit and who has to kneel or stand or lie down, legs spread open. Maybe it's about who can do what to whom and be forgiven for it. Never tell me it amounts to the same thing.”
