Out of 10 projects I get sent, seven or eight are female protagonists, and that's not the only thing I'm interested in.

The last western society to worship female powers was Minoan Crete. And significantly, that fell and did not rise again.

Male conspiracy cannot explain all female failures. I am convinced that, even without restrictions, there still would have been no female Pascal, Milton, or Kant. Genius is not checked by social obstacles: it will overcome.

There are no female geniuses because there are no female Jack-the-Rippers.

The female body is a chthonian machine, indifferent to the spirit who inhabits it.

If civilization had been left in female hands we would still be living in grass huts.

Women are not in control of their bodies; nature is. Ancient mythology, with its sinister archetypes of vampire and Gorgon, is more accurate than feminism about the power and terror of female sexuality.

Every man harbors an inner female territory ruled by his mother, from whom he can never entirely break free.

Men who shrink from penetration of the female body are paralyzed by justifiable apprehension, since they are returning to our uncanny site of origin.

Today, the ideal male is the gay man and the ideal female is the worker female, the woman who can work in a coal mine just like all the other men.

A word of advice - don't invite your parents to the after-party at 4 A. M.

I live in a bubble, but there have been times when my bubble has been burst.

Courtney isn't just a costume, it's a way I express my femininity.

The first time I ever dressed in drag was at a costume party during my childhood. I went as Wonder Woman and my mom even took me to get the costume.

Pride is a time to celebrate what makes us unique and the more we let young people know that those things that make us different are actually our greatest strengths, the more comfortable we are in our own skin and the more peacefully we'll sleep at night.

A good night's sleep is a super important part of feeling good.

I'm definitely more attracted to men and masculinity - not just cis men but trans guys, too.

Being trans means different things to different people. Some people don't take hormones, some people don't have surgery, some people are just happy living in the clothes of their chosen gender.

I think that 'Drag Race' would certainly let a straight guy compete in drag.

I think it's so important to think about the basic human rights of others and to use our collective voices, minds and bodies to lift those people up and bring about change.

'Fight For Love' is a dancefloor banger all about coming together and fighting for the things we believe in.

After Pride, Christmas is a drag queen's next best holiday. It's pretty gay, full of tinsel and glitter and finery and campness.

When it all boils down, being Courtney has forced me to be different to the status quo, which means I have gotten to decide on every choice along the way.

Gender roles are absurd when you actually look at them. The fact that anybody could ever say or think that dressing in women's clothes is wrong, or odd. Women dressing in women's clothes and men dressing in men's clothes is the actually the thing that is really odd.
