About This Quote

When women were not given power, they had to learn how to take it. Women learned that the only way they could gain power was by using their sex appeal. That’s why they started wearing tight clothes and doing sexy things. They wanted to be able to sleep with whoever they wanted and not feel afraid.

Once women were given power, they realized that what men wanted wasn’t sex but control. That’s why women started dressing conservatively and talking conservatively. Now men are afraid of them because they are not soft targets anymore.
