Camille Paglia Quotes
Feminists had an astoundingly naive view of the mutual exclusiveness of sex and aggression, which, Freud demonstrates, are fused in the amoral unconscious, as revealed to us through dreams. That rape is simply what used to be called 'unbridled lust,' like gluttony a sin of insufficient self-restraint, seems to be beyond the feminist ken.
