What the feminists want of me is something they haven't examined because it comes from religion. They want me to bear witness.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I AM what is called a Feminist. Thirty years ago I left a monastery and began a sane human existence. Within two or three years, I find, I was defending the rights of women.
Feminists don't like me, and I don't like them.
Women have that weird way of trying to be feminist. You know, like 'hear me roar.' But what they really want is a man to open the door for them.
My feminism, as intended by me, extends to empowering women to make legal choices, not to judge the legal choices they make. My fight is for rights.
Most days I struggle just to be accepted into the camp of plain old feminists. This is mainly because I am not by nature ideological and generally suspicious of people who are.
I've always been a feminist, and what I love in my work is being able to explore a full-sided woman and not patronize her.
Feminism is the ability to choose what you want to do.
If you say you're not a feminist, you're almost denying your own existence.
You come to a point where you give up on holding yourself to a perfect feminist ideal - it just feels stifling.
I wouldn't really call myself a feminist. I obviously want equality and equal opportunities to the men.
