More From Joseph Gordon-Levitt

Naturally my stories are about women - i'm a woman. i don't know what the term is for men who write mostly about men. i'm not always sure what is meant by "feminist." in the beginning i used to say, well, of course i'm a feminist. but if it means that i follow a kind of feminist theory, or know anything about it, then i'm not. i think i'm a feminist as far as thinking that the experience of women is important. that is really the basis of feminism.
Mean Writing Men
I consider myself 100 percent a feminist, at odds with the feminist establishment in america. for me the great mission of feminism is to seek the full political and legal equality of women with men. however, i disagree with many of my fellow feminists as an equal opportunity feminist, who believes that feminism should only be interested in equal rights before the law. i utterly oppose special protection for women where i think that a lot of the feminist establishment has drifted in the last 20 years.

We walked on the beach, fed blue corn ships to the seagulls, and munched on blue jelly beans, blue saltwater taffy and all the other free samples my mom brought home from work. i guess i should explain the blue food. see, gabe had once told my mom there was no such thing. they had this fight, which seemed like a really small thing at the time. but ever since, my mom went out of her way to eat blue. she baked blue birthday cakes. she mixed blueberry smoothies. she bought blue-corn tortilla chips and brought home blue candy from the shop.

Since we all came from a women, got our name from a women, and our game from a women. i wonder why we take from women, why we rape our women, do we hate our women? i think its time we killed for our women, be real to our women, try to heal our women, cus if we dont we'll have a race of babies that will hate the ladies, who make the babies. and since a man can't make one he has no right to tell a women when and where to create one
Baby Hate Real
I was always a feminist. my mother was a feminist; my grandmother was a feminist. i always understood women had to fight very hard to do what they wanted to do in the world - that it wasn't an easy choice. but i think the most important part is that we all want the right to be taken seriously as human beings, and to use our talents without reservation, and that's still not possible for women.
Mother Taken Fighting
She comes to me when she wants to be fed. and after i feed her -- guess what -- she's off to wherever she wants to be in the house, until the next time she gets hungry. she's smart enough to know she can't feed herself. she's actually a very smart cat. she gets loved. she gets adoration. she gets petted. she gets fed. and she doesn't have to do anything for it, which is why i say this cat's taught me more about women, than anything my whole life.

The why is plain as way to parish church: he that a fool doth very wisely hit doth very foolishly, although he smart, not to seem senseless of the bob; if not, the wise man's folly is anatomiz'd even by the squand'ring glances of the fool.
Wise Smart Men
After all those years as a woman hearing 'not thin enough, not pretty enough, not smart enough, not this enough, not that enough,' almost overnight i woke up one morning and thought, 'i'm enough.'

A lot of people like to fool you and say that you're not smart if you never went to college, but common sense rules over everything. that's what i learned from selling crack.
Smart College People
Well, you missed out on some important protocol, ella. you can't stand between a texan and his power tools. we like them. big ones that drain the national grid. we also like truck-stop breakfasts, large moving objects, monday night football, and the missionary position. we don't drink light beer, drive smart cars, or admit to knowing the names of more than about five or six colors. and we don't wax our chests, ever.
