"What I mean is that those thoughts, they're human. And just because you turn out differently than everyone's imagined you would doesn't mean that you've failed in some way. A kid who gets teased in one school might move to a different one, and be the most popular girl there, just because no one has any other expectations of her. Or a person who goes to med school because his entire family is full of doctors might find out that what he really wants to be is an artist instead."

"You will learn, but you have to act. You will be given, but you have to receive. Stretch your hands and take up your laurels by the power put in you!"

"The problem with depicting abusers as full-time monsters is that when a person is actually experiencing abuse in their own life, they'll think 'oh but he's the sweetest guy most of the time so he can't be an abuser ' or 'but he's not ALWAYS horrible, he's usually amazing, so he's not an abuser', and they'll make the mistake of thinking they mustn't really be being abused when they actually are."

"By all means be submissive in the bedroom (if you are that way inclined), but don't be submissive to life. Being life's bitch is no fun at all. Life may play up in many ways, but it's up to you to take control, take charge and put life in its place."

"Prove yourself and others wrong everyday by redefining who you THINK you are, through performing actions you would normally deem impossible or uncharacteristic of you."

"Both men and women experience pressure to conform to social standards of attractiveness. Men to look strong and be tough, women to look pretty and soft. Men to be masculine, women to be feminine. Men get judged for being 'too feminine', women get criticized for being 'too masculine'. Gender policing affects us all."

"If telling men 'don't rape' instead of telling women 'don't get raped', is like telling thieves 'don't steal' instead of home owners to 'lock your houses', why don't we hear more victims of home invasion being told 'you got what you deserved for having such a beautiful house on display for everyone to see' ???"

"Erotic role-play is a powerful sexual outlet which can orgasmically release us from the shackles of convention and normality to express a side of ourselves we otherwise would not have opportunity to convey."

"Be wary of a self-professed 'nice guy'. Anyone who is always going around saying they are 'just trying to be nice' are most often, anything but nice. -If you're truly kind and loving, you don't have to 'try'. It comes naturally."
