More From Amanda Palmer

The problem with feminism in the second wave was that we fought so much among ourselves, and i think we did so much damage to the movement... and i think the next wave, the third wave, is women mentoring younger women and women helping younger women to enter the political process and the writing world.
Writing Thinking Political
I had a real come-to-jesus a couple of years ago when i started to see the direct line between feminism and everything else - feminism and climate change, feminism and poverty, feminism and hunger - and it was almost like i was born again and started walking down the street and was like, "oh, my god, there are women everywhere! they're just everywhere you look. there's women all over the place!"
Jesus Couple Real
I get very frustrated when i hear women saying, "oh, feminism is passé," because i think feminism means empowerment. men can be feminists, too! many men are feminists. we need feminism. it's not against men; it's about the empowerment of women. it's the respect of women - giving women equal rights, the same opportunities.
Strong Women Mean Opportunity
The majority of terrorist attacks that have been disrupted in the united states have been disrupted due to things like the time square bomber, who was caught by a hotdog vendor, not a mass surveillance program, not a cyber-espionage campaign.

Feminism as a movement for political and social equity is important, but feminism as an academic clique committed to eccentric doctrines about human nature is not. eliminating discrimination against women is important, but believing that women and men are born with indistinguishable minds is not. freedom of choice is important, but ensuring that women make up exactly 50 percent of all professions is not. and eliminating sexual assaults is important, but advancing the theory that rapists are doing their part in a vast male conspiracy is not.
Believe Men Choices
Feminism is really the right of women to be full human beings and to not be defined only by their childbearing function. feminism is really the right of women to be human beings. that's it, yet that's so frightening to a lot of people. a full human being wants satisfying work and love. a full human being is entitled to both, and is not simply defined by only one aspect of her being.

I am intrigued with the shapes people choose as their symbols to create a language. there is within all forms a basic structure, an indication of the entire object with a minimum of lines that becomes a symbol. this is common to all languages, all people, all times.
