Bonnie Burstow
Often father and daughter look down on mother (woman) together. They exchange meaningful glances when she misses a point. They agree that she is not bright as they are, cannot reason as they do. This collusion does not save the daughter from the mother’s fate.
Bonnie Burstow, Radical Feminist Therapy: Working in the Context of Violence

Irina Dunn
A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.
