I've always had mostly women come out to see me perform. That's the reason the guys show up; they know R. Kelly is going to draw the women. Most of the songs I'm singing are catering to women anyway.
When I graduated from Brown after majoring in women's studies, I made my first PBS documentary, 'Women of Substance.' My first feature documentary was called 'American Hollow,' which I did for HBO and was at the Sundance Film Festival.
We have a large pool of talented and educated women, and yet workplaces haven't necessarily changed to accommodate the reality of their lives.
When you're wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains, and the women come out to cut up what remains, jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains and go to your gawd like a soldier.
I don't think women should look like costumes. I don't think they should look like fashion victims. I think these (clothes) are for women that want to look sexy. They want to look smart.
They know they're going to look beautiful, and I don't think women should look like costumes. They shouldn't look like fashion victims.
Women have to take more control of their careers. They can't just wait to be cast in a film.
I never set out to be a role model for large women, I just do what I feel is right.
It's inspiring, I think, for women out there to see I'm a regular person. I am the every woman who's struggled with my weight.
Feminism was established to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream.
If I could have one superpower, I'd be like Mel Gibson in 'What Women Want,' where he reads women's minds.
That's one thing I find about having children - it does unlock a door that separates you from other women who've had children.
Sexism is not the fault of women - kill your fathers, not your mothers.
Women are not inherently passive or peaceful.
Women born and raised on this fragile planet have more uniting us than dividing us - and it's the job of feminists to help us realise that.
There's a certain way people are used to seeing nude women, and that's in a submissive, coy pose, not looking at the camera. And in this poster, I'm looking dead into the camera with no expression on my face. I think it freaks a lot of people out.
I like strong, strong women who don't go down without a fight. I like iconic roles. They don't come around very often, so I have to wait for them. Obviously I'm not the typical blonde who stands by the side, while the man has all the fun.
They say that women dress for other women, but I don't think that's entirely true. If we want to look flossy out-and-about on a Friday night, we're dressing for the boys - and it's nice when they notice.
I don't know what flirting is, really. Sometimes in women, friendliness comes across as flirting. That is not what it is.
I was impressed by a program called New Roots, which helps women refugees from countries in conflict to start new lives in the U.S. by farming. They are trained in a four-year program, at the end of which New Roots helps them find their own land to f...
Even now, after whatever gains feminism has made in involving fathers in the rearing of their children, I still think virtually all of us spend the most formative years of our lives very much in the presence of women.
