 [Feminism] asks that women be free to define themselves -- instead of having their identity defined for them, time and again, by their culture and their men.

 And you look at the candidates, and particularly George W. Bush's, just imagery-wise, allows people to feel that -- particularly men, to feel that something was handed down from father to son, that there is a legacy. And similarly with Gore, who's father was senator, and similarly with someone like John McCain, who just wrote a book on his father.

 As it turns out, social scientists have established only one fact about single women's mental health: employment improves it.

 Divorced men are more likely to meet their car payments than their child support obligations.

 Feminism's agenda is basic: It asks that women not be forced to "choose" between public justice and private happiness.

 The demand that women "return to femininity" is a demand that the cultural gears shift into reverse, that we back up to a fabled time when everyone was richer, younger, more powerful.

 The modern fairy tale ending is the reverse of the traditional one: A woman does not wait for Prince Charming to bring her happiness; she lives happily ever after only by refusing to wait for him -- or by actually rejecting him. It is those who persist in hoping for a Prince Charming who are setting themselves up for disillusionment and unhappiness.
