Basically women have to prove they are strong at all times. And then when they go on the attack they have to not appear mean because those women often get the label of being catty.
Many differences are rooted in biology and reinforced through culture so it's important to acknowledge that. Because if you say men and women are the same and if male behaviour is the norm and women are always expected to act like men we will never be as good at being men as men are.
When I meet large women who walk with confidence and are articulate and really have an understanding of how they walk in this world I love them so deeply for being able to overcome such unbelievable odds.
I noticed in the past a lot of guys who like strong women they really freak out if you're not strong 24/7. Or they complain about you being strong then the moment you're not strong they're like 'Oh no no no.'
I'm excited about there being more of a sisterhood these days. Back in the '90s there was a lot of hate - the women I looked up to as artists were dissing me! It's not so patriarchal these days - there's more love and a lot less hate!
I want to be a cheerleader for women who have never even considered running for office or being involved in a campaign but who in the quietness of their hearts might think 'Why not me?'
If you live in rock and roll as I do you see the reality of sex of male lust and women being aroused by male lust. It attracts women. It doesn't repel them.
Good-humoured unaffected girls will not do for a man who has been used to sensible women. They are two distinct orders of being.

A lot of women say they love being pregnant but I wasn't such a big fan.
I grew up in the Bronx where you would stay up late with your girlfriends just being silly in our bedrooms whatever. And I was always the clown.
Single women have a dreadful propensity for being poor. Which is one very strong argument in favor of matrimony.
But the Wisdom of God which is His only-begotten Son being in all respects incapable of change or alteration and every good quality in Him being essential and such as cannot be changed and converted His glory is therefore declared to be pure and sincere.
He whose wisdom cannot help him gets no good from being wise.
To suppose more than one supreme Source of infinite wisdom power and all perfections is to assert that there is no supreme Being in existence.
This society in which we live is radically changing. What previous generations saw as evil is now embraced as being good. It is a dangerous and slippery slope upon which we stand when we reject what Solomon called the beginning of wisdom - the fear of God.

It is astonishing what force purity and wisdom it requires for a human being to keep clear of falsehoods.
I acknowledge the privilege of being alive in a human body at this moment endowed with senses memories emotions thoughts and the space of mind in its wisdom aspect.
