Quote by Andrea Dworkin
Only when manhood is dead -- and it will perish when ravaged femininity no longer sustains it -- only then will we know what it is to be free.
Summary
This quote suggests that true freedom can only be achieved when traditional notions of masculinity, which rely on the oppression and subjugation of femininity, cease to exist. It implies that the current paradigm of gender where men maintain their dominance at the expense of women, limits the freedom and growth of society as a whole. By dismantling this hierarchy and promoting equality and respect between genders, true freedom can emerge. It signals the importance of redefining and overcoming societal norms that perpetuate gender-based discrimination and violence.
