“The girls couldn't block out these things and they didn't want to; they wanted to stay acutely aware of the war against them so they could fight back.”

“Anybody who listened to her talk or who read the zine she had begun publishing, Fantastic Fanzine, could easily become hypnotized by her words’ raw force: This world teaches women to hate themselves, but I refuse to listen to its message. I’m not going to let boys come between me and my girlfriends. I’m not going to try and be your idea of sexy if sexy means being thin and helpless, tottering around on high heeled shoes. I’m not going to stay home at night hating my sex because if I go out then I’m asking for trouble.”
― Sara Marcus, Girls to the Front: The True Story of the Riot Grrrl Revolution
