We still make love to organs and not people. - Germaine Greer

Not all love is comprehended in such a description, but the sickening
obsession which thrills the nervous frames of the heroines of
great love-affairs whether in cheap ‘romance’ comic-papers or in
hard-back novels of passionate wooing is just that. Women must
recognize in the cheap ideology of being in love the essential persuasion
to take an irrational and self-destructive step. Such obsession
has nothing to do with love, for love is not swoon, possession or
mania, but ‘a cognitive act, indeed the only way to grasp the innermost
core of personality.

I do think that women could make politics irrelevant; by a kind of spontaneous cooperative action the like of which we have never seen; which is so far from people’s ideas of state structure or viable social structure that it seems to them like total anarchy — when what it really is, is very subtle forms of interrelation that do not follow some heirarchal pattern which is fundamentally patriarchal. The opposite to patriarchy is not matriarchy but fraternity, yet I think it’s women who are going to have to break this spiral of power and find the trick of cooperation.

The most powerful entities on earth are not governments but the multi-national corporations that see women as their territory, indoctrinating them with their versions of beauty, health and hygiene, medicating them and cultivating their dependency in order to medicate them some more.
