Her task was not easy. Daddy believed a woman with too much education would never find a husband. In the dark when they talked lying in bed, away from the ears of children, he warned and berated her. She had to train her daughters to be the kind of girls men would want to marry—quiet, obedient, good homemakers—and at the same time secretly share with us that we needed to prepare ourselves to work. Sex and race were the dangers that made it possible for a girl to get off track, to get lost, and never be found again; no one talked about class.

Women expect men to develop useful skills, be masculine, strong, and acquire resources that a woman and her offspring can benefit from. Her sexual strategy is hypergamy and, as a result, it continuously asks her if you are the best she can do.

What is a woman's place in this modern world? Jasnah Kholin's words read. I rebel against this question, though so many of my peers ask it. The inherent bias in the inquiry seems invisible to so many of them. They consider themselves progressive because they are willing to challenge many of the assumptions of the past.
They ignore the greater assumption that a "place" for women must be defined and set forth to begin with. Half of the population must somehow be reduced to the role arrived at by a single conversation. No matter how broad that role is, it will be-by nature-a reduction from the infinite variety that is womanhood.
I say that there is no role for women-there is, instead, a role for each woman, and she must make it for herself. For some, it will be the role of scholar; for others, it will be the role of wife. For others, it will be both. For yet others, it will be neither.
Do not mistake me in assuming I value one woman's role above another. My point is not to stratify our society-we have done that far too well already- my point is to diversify our discourse.
A woman's strength should not be in her role, whatever she chooses it to be, but in the power to choose that role. It is amazing to me that I even have to make this point, as I see it as the very foundation of our conversation.

I was a lesbian when she loved me and a straight woman when she hated me.
I hated being called a lesbian. Not because I thought there was anything wrong with loving a woman, mind you. No, I'd come to terms with that a long time ago. But Cecila only saw things black and white. She liked women. And I liked her. And so she often denied the rest of me.
“guess a woman can either love or be loved, but it’s almost impossible to have both.”

Sevdiğim yazarlardan Alain de Botton şöyle der :
"Başarının para ve itibar kazanmakla bir alakası yoktur. İnsan, başkalarından ziyade kendi kafasında kurduğu başarı tanımına erişmeye çalışmalıdır."
