“Sexual secrecy and political secrecy go hand in hand”

yall were not even outa the intro n ik this book is gunna fuck (pun intended)

“It’s not just that sexual rights are part of human rights: we know that it’s by exploiting the lack of them that men have come to dominate in so many civilisations. To defend sexual rights is directly defend woman’s rights.”

“We are not the same as our culture; rather our culture is what we make of it”

“We can no longer allow ourselves to ignore the truth on the pre-text that it does not conform to our religion, to our laws or simply the image of ourselves that we’d like to project.”

“Our society has been eroded by the poison of its hypocrisy and by an institutionalized culture of lying.”
