“The Devil is a woman.”

Quelle: Sexual Personae: Art and Decadence from Nefertiti to Emily Dickinson (1990), p. 11

“Because boys lack a biological marker like menstruation, to be man is to be not female.”

Contemporary feminism called this "misogyny," but it was wrong. Masculine identity is embattled and fragile. In the absence of opportunity for heroic physical action, as in the modern office world, women's goodwill is crucial for preserving the male ego, which requires, alas, daily maintenance. It is in the best interests of the human race, and of women themselves, for men to be strong.
Quelle: Vamps and Tramps (1994), "No Law in the Arena: A Pagan Theory of Sexuality", p. 85

“Films of the mating behavior of most other species — a staple of public television of America — demonstrate that the female chooses.”

Males pursue, show off, brawl, scuffle, and make general fools of themselves for love. A major failing of most feminist ideology is its dumb, ungenerous stereotyping of men as tyrants and abusers, when in fact — as I know full well from my own mortifying lesbian experience — men are tormented by women’s flirtatiousness and hemming and hawing, their manipulations and changeableness, their humiliating rejections. Cock teasing is a universal reality. It is part of women’s merciless testing and cold-eyed comparison shopping for potential mates. Men will do anything to win the favor of women.
Quelle: Vamps and Tramps (1994), "No Law in the Arena: A Pagan Theory of Sexuality", p. 35

“Foucault is the Cagliostro of our time.”

Quelle: Sex, Art and American Culture : New Essays (1992), Junk Bonds and Corporate Raiders : Academe in the Hour of the Wolf, p. 224

“When in doubt, I read Oscar Wilde.”

Quelle: Sex, Art and American Culture : New Essays (1992), p. xi

“Feminism was always wrong to pretend that women could “have it all.””

It is not male society but mother nature who lays the heaviest burden on woman. No husband or day care can adequately substitute for a mother’s attention. My feminist heroes are the boldly independent and childless Amelia Earhart and Katherine Hepburn, who has been outspoken in her opposition to the delusion of “having it all.”
Quelle: Sex, Art and American Culture : New Essays (1992), p. 89

“Everything great in western culture has come from the quarrel with nature.”

“I don't want special protection for gays or transgender. I'm saying there should be protections for all dissident behavior and speech. Dissidents of every kind.”
