"Male conspiracy cannot explain all female failures. In philosophy and mathematics, the only materials are pen and paper. I am convinced that, even without restrictions, there still would have been no female Pascal, Milton, or Kant. Genius is not checked by social obstacles: it will overcome.
Men's egotism, so disgusting in the talentless, is the source of their greatness. Even now, with all vocations open, I marvel at the rarity of the woman driven by intellectual obsession. There is no female Mozart because there is no female Jack the Ripper."
-- Professor Camille Paglia, my hero and heroin
BTW, she also said: "We cannot regulate male sexuality. The uncontrollable aspect of male sexuality is part of what makes sex interesting. And yes, it can lead to rape in some situations.
"My attitude is, yes, go for it, take the risk, take the challenge--if you get raped in a dark alley in a street, it's okay. That is part of the risk of freedom, that's part of what we've demanded as women. Go with it.
"It's this whole stupid feminist thing about how we females are basically nurturing, benevolent creatures, and sex is a wonderful, loving thing between two equals. With that kind of attitude, then of course rape is going to be a total violation of your entire life, because you have had a stupid, naive, Mary Poppins view of life to begin with.
"Sex is a turbulent power that we are not in control of; it's a dark force. The sexes are at war with each other. That's part of the excitement of sex. It's the dark realm of the night. When you enter the realm of the night, very strange things can happen. "
RIGHT ON!
