A lot of times I can across as too masculine to men, and they couldn't handle me, they stayed away.
Brenda Holloway
A masculine education cannot spare from professional study and the necessary acquisition of languages, the time and attention which I have bestowed on the compositions of my countrymen.
Anne Seward
All societies on the verge of death are masculine. A society can survive with only one man; no society will survive a shortage of women.
Germaine Greer
Androgyny refers to a specific way of joining the 'masculine' and 'feminine' aspects of a single human being.
June Singer
As regards the individual nature, woman is defective and misbegotten, for the active power of the male seed tends to the production of a perfect likeness in the masculine sex; while the production of a woman comes from defect in the active power.
Thomas Aquinas
At no point do I wish to be in conflict with any man or masculine thought. It doesn't enter my consciousness. Art is anonymous. It's not competitive with men. It's a complementary contribution.
Barbara Hepworth

Clifford Geertz

Jolene Blalock
