When you think of sexual liberation, which women wanted to have or not have children, which is the choice, not a command, and other kinds of things they wanted in their relationships with their husbands, or partners or what have you, became for subsequent generations some license that they themselves feel, that is absolutely demeaning and mean younger and younger and younger.

More From Toni Morrison

Hillary clinton said that white women did not vote for her because their husbands told them not to. you remember that? and we all said, "wait a minute. what happened to feminism? who are all of these docile women who are only doing what their husbands and boyfriends tell 'em to do?" but hillary said that. white women didn't vote for her because their husbands didn't like hillary and their husbands are telling them.
Husband Waiting Feminism
I had motives for not wanting the world to have meaning; consequently assumed that it had none, and was able without any difficulty to find satisfying reasons for this assumption ... for myself, as no doubt, for most of my contemporaries, the philosophy of meaninglessness was essentially an instrument of liberation. the liberation we desired was simultaneous liberation from a certain political and economic system, and liberation from a certain system of morality. we objected to the morality because it interfered with our sexual freedom.

We should be licensing everybody with a gun. i have to have a license for my dog. i have to have a license for my car. if you’re going to do my hair later you have to have a license ... we don’t require a license to own a firearm?

This rose became a bandanna, which became a house, which became infused with all passion, which became a hideaway, which became yes i would like to have dinner, which became hands, which became lands, shores, beaches, natives on the stones, staring and wild beasts in the trees, chasing the hats of lost hunters, and all this deserves a tone.

Here is the trap you are in.... and it's not my trap—i haven't trapped you. because abortions are illegal, women who need and want them have no choice in the matter, and you—because you know how to perform them—have no choice, either. what has been violated here is your freedom of choice, and every woman's freedom of choice, too. if abortion was legal, a woman would have a choice—and so would you. you could feel free not to do it because someone else would. but the way it is, you're trapped. women are trapped. women are victims, and so are you.

God wants a love partner, centering on the place where husband and wife become one through their sexual organs, god wants to appear and meet us...i wish you would center on the absolute sexual organ, unique sexual organ, unchanging sexual organ and eternal sexual organ and use this as your foundation to pursue god...we have to realize that the kingdom of god on earth and in heaven will begin on this foundation.

Women diet to retain their girlish figures or their boyish husbands.
Husband Boyish Figures
Time has its revenges, but revenge seems so often sour. wouldn’t we all do better not trying to understand, accepting the fact that no human being will ever understand another, not a wife with a husband, nor a parent a child? perhaps that’s why men have invented god – a being capable of understanding.
