Not the Second Sex A book of Women

Author Name: J. M. Kumar | Format: Paperback | Genre : Biographies & Autobiographies | Other Details

“All that investment is only for removing the dress and become naked at the end of the day in front of a man,” Krishna said to Laila, a gorgeous fashion model in Mumbai, when she was bolstering about the efforts she had to take to dress and make up.

“Given a choice, a woman will always choose a man with whom she would be happy rather than comfortable. A man never understands that.”

Rachel

“Author Rebecca West said, ‘I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is: I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat.”

Maitreyi

Maitreyi asked Yajnavalkya her husband, the great intellect and renowned sage, “If you leave me with all your wealth to seek the Brahman, what shall I do with that by which I cannot become an immortal?.”
