I mean, the unfair treatment of women and black people and Indians and other groups, that's real. Mistreatment of other people because 'I'm better than you are' is such a sad part of the world.
I was raised in a very old fashioned Ireland where women were reared to be lovely.
The troops are therefore empowered and are in duty bound in this war to use without mitigation even against women and children any means that will lead to success.
If you look at any Muslim society and you make a scale of how developed they are, and how successful the economy is, it's a straight line. It depends on how much they emancipate their women.
The evidence that I see around me in society indicates that not only is thinking very much out of favor, but I'm not sure that the last couple of generations - Generation X and Generation Next, or whatever you want to call them - even know what a tho...
And nothing embittered me, which is important, because I think ethnic people and women in this society can end up being embittered because of the lack of affirmative action, you know.
To conclude that women are unfitted to the task of our historic society seems to me the equivalent of closing male eyes to female facts.
While there are few records of Viking women participating in battle, they certainly held positions of high status in society as human sorceresses known as 'volvas.'
I think one of the reasons I've done so much period work is because I feel so depressed by how society chooses to represent women in contemporary work.

I think nowadays, women are breaking the borders or the boundaries and also trying to give a new interpretation in terms of impact you can have to the society.
I have always loved lipstick. For women, that love comes from our mother and grandmothers. It's so natural for a woman to open up her mirror and apply lipstick.
Anyone who is an enemy of mine, let him love women, but let he who is my friend rejoice in men.
The women I love most are Latina - my sister, mother, and daughter. They're spontaneous but spend a majority of their time trying to make others happy.
Pop music seems to be the way radio programming has chosen to support female artists. They have chosen not to support a more provocative voice from women, which I find disappointing.
The whole story of the comfort women, the system of forced sexual slavery, the medical experiments of Unit 731, is not something that is in the US psyche. That is changing because many books are coming out.
I think that women definitely have a special bond as friends that is hard to describe to men, and we don't often see that portrayed narratively.
Female empowerment really is important to me. I'm a big nerd of the books from the 15th Century and 16th Century, when the men had all the power and the women had none of it.
Men aren't the way they are because they want to drive women crazy; they've been trained to be that way for thousands of years. And that training makes it very difficult for men to be intimate.
Men become much more attractive when they start looking older. But it doesn't do much for women, though we do have an advantage: make-up.
Men do communicate, often very directly, but women sometimes cannot accept how simple what we have to say is.
