The most unpardonable privilege that men enjoy is their magnanimity. - Germaine Greer

another characteristic I found of love in healthy people is that they
have made no really sharp differentiation between the roles and
personalities of the two sexes. That is, they did not assume that the

of their maleness or femaleness they did not mind taking on some
of the aspects of the opposite sex role. It was especially noteworthy
that they could be both passive and active lovers…an instance of
the way in which common dichotomies are so often resolved in selfactualization,
appearing to be valid dichotomies only because people
are not healthy enough.

The end cannot justify the means: if she finds that her revolutionary way leads only to further discipline and continuing incomprehension, with their corollaries of bitterness and diminution, no matter how glittering the objective which would justify it, she must understand that it is a wrong way and an illusory end. The struggle which is not joyous is the wrong struggle. The joy of the struggle is not hedonism and hilarity, but the sense of purpose, achievement and dignity which is the reflowering of etiolated energy. Only these can sustain her and keep the flow of energy coming. The problems are only equalled by the possibilities: every mistake made is redeemed when it is understood. The only ways in which she can feel such joy are radical ones: the more derided and maligned the action that she undertakes, the more radical.
