Today in Saudi, women are either at the mercy of their husbands or at the mercy of judges who tend to side with the husbands.

Sometimes our definitions fall short. Take, for example, the way we view income and labor. It simply doesn’t cover enough of the work that women, and in particular poor women, are doing – especially in their own households and the vast ‘informal‘ economy in which most of the world’s poorest people work.
Madonna is that forbidden thing, the Nietzschean creative woman. Her preoccupation with a high level of work doesn’t allow her to follow the usual script that powerful women are expected to follow – ‘don’t hate me for my success, don’t hate me for my power.’

I think a lot of the time in films, men get roles where they create their own destiny and women are just tools, supporters for that.
In life, single women are the most vulnerable adults. In movies, they are given imaginary power.

There’s this myth that women are supposed to compete with each other or something, or we’re supposed to hate each other, and that’s totally not productive.

As is the case with many Middle Eastern nations, women are nowhere near equal to men when it comes to basic freedoms and rights that we take for granted every day.
It saddens me to see the reality-television shows that are getting so much fanfare that are a celebration of stupidity and the degradation of women. And those women are consistently wearing too short, too tight dresses. I hope the trend of aging gracefully returns.
I feel like women are asked their age more than men.
I think women are really good at making friends and not good at networking. Men are good at networking and not necessarily making friends. That’s a gross generalization, but I think it holds in many ways.

Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must – at that moment – become the center of the universe.

Women are never disarmed by compliments. Men always are. That is the difference between the sexes.
Women are supposed to want to settle down and have a family. That’s not for me.
Generally my feeling is that I think women are just in a universal way coming out, coming to their own more. And they have more opportunity, and basically we’re equal.
I understand that many young men and women are coming forward to join Youth Congress. I am not surprised. It is only natural. The vast majority of our youth is sober and idealistic. It looks forward to an era of disciplined, planned, constructive activity.
Societies that empower women are less violent in every way.
I’ve always said that I felt women are more heroic.
The problem of sexism is getting better, but I don’t know if it’s getting better fast enough.

I think women are used to stepping up and getting the job done when you need to.

Men are motivated and empowered when they feel needed. Women are motivated and empowered when they feel cherished.

Women are so many things. We’re sisters, mothers, wives. There are so many things we encompass.
‘Wild Swans’ showed me there are Chinese traditions that still affect my life. For example, it’s not that women are inferior, exactly, but my dad and my brother are the most important men in my life and I would do anything for them. I feel like I should be the one cooking and looking after them.
Crimes against women are growing day by day. Despite this, the mindset of our leaders, politicians, or judicial system is not changing.

The Italians live well. They have problems, like all countries, but they are well-dressed, the women are pretty.
I will say that the idea of a woman being deceptive came from that original discussion with critics and reporters about if woman could do that kind of thing. Evelyn, herself, grew out of the discussions about how capable women are of deceit and lying and manipulation.
I’ve always had that gratitude that I had the opportunity to pursue my potential. So I think my story says that, when women are given the chance and the opportunity, that we can achieve a lot. We deliver. We can make the world a better place, one butt at a time.
Oh, I definitely feel that women are equal to men. No doubt about that.
The thing I will say is that probably culturally, women are treated differently, which means, I think, you’re criticized more, you have to listen a little bit more, you have to justify yourself.
Comedy can be, especially in a writer‘s room, really aggressive, kind of a very male-dominated room, and it would be hard for women. It’s not a nurturing place. It’s not like a lot of women are going to say, I can’t wait to live that lifestyle and be in a writer’s room until 2 or 3 a.m.
You’d be surprised how self-conscious a lot of women are. That’s something I’ve witnessed firsthand.
We women are so judged by the way we dress, and men are not. So style is part of developing your own brand.
That women are mysterious and unknowable is something every young man grows up believing. Men, on the other hand, never think of themselves as mysterious or confusing, and we are often at a loss as to why women want to figure us out.
I think how pay gets determined is pretty broad – experience, how people look, what they bring to the job. But there’s no question women are paid less. Women don’t ask.
Some women are great, and you wouldn’t have been able to get to where you are without them, and others are doing what they can to undermine you.
Unless there is recognition that women are most vulnerable… and you do something about social and cultural equality for women, you’re never going to defeat this pandemic.
Women are a little more assertive in terms of our ability to express our feelings when we fall in love.
I’m just talking specifically of women’s friendships. If two women go to a bar and they are fighting over men, it makes it much easier for the men. If two women are very close and they act as it makes it very difficult for the men to pull one over on anybody.
I love stories about women, and I think stories about women are generally pretty underrepresented.
Women are able to fit public service into their lives. Once they find out they like it and can do it, there is plenty of room to grow.
In Latin America, women are supposed to be voluptuous. They don’t believe that you have to be skinny to be attractive.
Women are systematically degraded by receiving the trivial attentions which men think it manly to pay to the sex, when, in fact, men are insultingly supporting their own superiority.
There are ways that women absorb situations, and I think women are different kinds of listeners. They’re different in terms of how they parse out problem solving.
We cannot ensure that women will be free of discrimination in the workplace and everywhere as long as women are not universally defended under our Constitution. As it stands now, the equal rights of women are subject to interpretation of law. That is a risk our mothers, sisters and daughters cannot afford.
Women are smart enough and strong enough to make their own health care decisions and should be able to make these decisions in private, consulting with their doctors and families as they choose.
In the American office lexicon, ‘aging’ – and its close cousin ‘old’ – are inconsistent modifiers. While older women are often labeled as ‘tired’ and ‘out of touch,’ aging men get to be ‘distinguished‘ and ‘seasoned.’
Women in general interest me. I like how women are more liable to talk about real things, personal things.
Women are never the protagonists; we’re always reactionary against everything that’s done to us. I like people who write for women that have got a bit more about them.
I believe women are the glue of everything.
Women are still congenitally Democratic – and I’m the Republican pollster saying that.
Women are, I think, moved by the idea that self-sacrifice is noble and can be the source of great joy.
I think I am at my best when my hair is short. It’s easier to take care of and more of who I am. Women are conditioned to think we need long hair.
Yes, women are stronger than us. They face more directly the problems that confront them, and for that reason they are much more spectacular to talk about. I don’t know why I am more interested in women, because I don’t go to any psychiatrists, and I don’t want to know why.
As long as women are in the work force making their own money and decisions, men are going to have to realize that this way of life is here to stay – because it takes two incomes to make it and more now. The sooner you address your style of saving and spending with your mate the better off your relationship will be.
I’ve said this before, and I’m sure there are people who disagree, but I feel like one of the reasons there aren’t a lot more women in stand-up – and there are many more now; it’s not parity, but it’s getting there – is that women are not socialized to look stupid or silly. They’re socialized to be pretty and precious.
We might have to broaden our scope of how we think about where women are vulnerable, because different things make different women vulnerable.
Women are inherently told their bodies are objects, so that’s how we treat them.
In television, women can really run anything. It can be a comedy, it can be a drama, it can be genre, it can be anything. But in films, women are still getting to the top.

Women are so complicated, it’s unbelievable.

My complexion, we too gutter: light-skinned women are more sensitive.
My Cape women are generally true to type – big hearted, motherly women who love the sea. My other characters, with the exception of the Portuguese, who I occasionally mention as Cape dwellers, are obviously drawn from the city types one sees in everyday life.
When I was younger, I felt very much like, ‘Oh, I have to be a certain way, I have to look a certain way.’ You really, really don’t. That’s the way women are treated differently than men. I mean, I’ve had actors argue with me about this.
Women are liked better when they lose.
I think women are amazing and women’s friendships are like a sisterhood and we should see more of it in television and film.

Younger women tend to be busier, wearing more layers and more make-up. I don’t know if it’s because older women are more confident, or just that we don’t care any more. But that pared-down approach is the same with the sentences I write; I take out adjectives and adverbs and keep the description to a minimum.
Because sorry to say, women run the house. They run the family. They hold things up. I mean, it’s like you don’t ever see your mom get sick because she handles everything. And it’s kind of amazing I think to show people just how strong women are.
Women are capable of doing so many things these days, physically, emotionally, within relationships and career. There are so many things that women have evolved into and I feel really proud about where women are right now.
Most women are wise to the fact that lots of men love a cat-fight, and thus go out of their way not to give them one.
I’m not an ardent feminist – well, maybe I am an ardent feminist. I just roll my eyes at the way women are constantly used and how sensitive men are about photographs of themselves.
I do think that having the villain be a woman is just as feminine, because we’re not just saying, ‘Women are wonderful and made of marshmallows,’ but women can be anything. They can be amazing superheroes, or they can be dastardly villains, and everything in between.
Women are trying to have it all but are trying to regain control over their time. That’s why many women are busting out of the traditional workforce and starting their own businesses.
I don’t care for the music when they’re talking bad about women because I think women are God’s greatest gift to the planet – I just like music.
It gets quite difficult for me when I listen to pop music. I don’t often understand the words, but when someone translates them to me, I think, ‘What is this song representing? That women are just there to be treated like objects?’
Men think we can’t do two things at once. They can’t, but we can. Women are more resilient.
There are many types of preventive health care services that are covered, things like blood pressure medication, for example. And women are merely asking that their health be taken just as seriously.
Women are, in my view, natural peacemakers. As givers and nurturers of life, through their focus on human relationships and their engagement with the demanding work of raising children and protecting family life, they develop a deep sense of empathy that cuts through to underlying human realities.
We need to create a society where girls and women are getting the same encouragement and support to build their careers as the boys and men are. From the start.
I know some women are intimidated by makeup.
Women are amazing lovers.
Most African women are taught to endure abusive marriages. They say endurance means a good wife but most women endure abusive relationship because they are not empowered economically; they depend on their husbands.
Right now women are using surrogates because they can’t be pregnant. What worries me is the possibility that soon they’ll use surrogates because they don’t want to be pregnant.

I think women are too valuable to be in combat.
Men and women are custodians of this society, and we both decide what’s going to happen for our future. I feel that very, very strongly.

You hear about these shows where there are all these women are supposedly always in a catfight, and then you find out in reality that they’re all getting along fine.
Being trans, I’ve grown up with the understanding that most women are born girls, yet some are born boys. And most men are born boys, yet some are born girls. And if you’re ready for this, some people are born girls or boys and choose to identify outside our society’s binary system, making them genderqueer.
I don’t really care what people tell children – when you believe in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy, one more fib won’t hurt. But I am infuriated by the growing notion, posited in some touchy-feely quarters, that all women are, or can be, beautiful.
Women are from their very infancy debarred those Advantages with the want of which they are afterwards reproached.
Women are wiser than men because they know less and understand more.
Women are, in general, less shallow visually. If their man gains 10, 20 pounds, they don’t care as much. But I’ve been with women over the years when my weight fluctuated, and they’re definitely more interested physically when I am in really great shape.
Certain roles for older women are aimed at certain older actresses – I’m not one of those. I’ve been offered any number of Puerto Rican grandmas that I’ve turned down.

Life does not stand still for families and local communities when our brave men and women are deployed, but we can make their time apart more bearable by recognizing their sacrifice and fulfilling our commitments to them.
Women are living independently, but we don’t yet have the social and economic policies behind us to support that independence.
Women are repeatedly accused of taking things personally. I cannot see any other honest way of taking them.
Women have full equality with men before the Lord. By nature, the roles of women differ from those of men. This knowledge has come to us with the Restoration of the gospel in the fullness of times, with an acknowledgment that women are endowed with the great responsibilities of motherhood and nurturing.
There are no more excuses for leaving women out of the inner circles of power. Qualified women are everywhere. Women are ready for leadership; they just need to be identified and asked.

If you do the math, films featuring women are a good investment.
Women are far and away the bigger consumers of fiction than men, but men are still far and away the more reviewed, the more critically esteemed, the more respected. That can get frustrating.

In discussions around the hiring and firing of Black faculty at universities, the charge is frequently heard that Black women are more easily hired than are Black men.

People of color and women are increasingly being shown on-screen. For things to be whitewashed just doesn’t make sense.
It’s just a given that women are working and are ambitious and have things they want to accomplish, and that stymies the amount of time they have to look around for a perfect guy.
What I really need is for people to know that I don’t just do this, I do this and this and this and this. We all have creativity in us and we all are multi-dimensional and we are all interested in a lot of things and that women are fabulous. We can handle a lot of things.

My decision to register women confirms what is already obvious throughout our society-that women are now providing all types of skills in every profession. The military should be no exception.
Where women are concerned, the rule is never to go out with anyone better dressed than you.

I’ve never seen a world where only men were responsible for the violence, and the women were innocent. They go together. Men and women are a violent mixture.

I think the rules will change and I think more and more young women are going to decide that having a family and taking care of a home is not a bad choice, but how do we subsidize it – not necessarily European-style socialism. It’ll have to be a new more creative, dynamic and local solution.
The fictional narratives that television, film, and the news provide for girls and young women are appalling.
