I’m fully aware had I stayed with my art, I would be well known, respected and most likely rich.

It was easy to leave the art world after I found out that it was just another corporation. When they told me I had to create the same thing, I rebelled.

It’s just blind luck when a woman is born into a wealthy family and attends the best colleges and joins top sororities.

The women working at abortion clinics are really on the front lines and the true heroes of feminism.

I had very little support from any feminist organization. But fortunately my post-marital lover, who had bailed out of academia over political in-fighting, was a one-man support team. He was the one who pushed me to write.

The galleries are simply corporations in the art world – “Here’s a million dollars for this latest piece of crap” – but I’m not about to go along with the gallery system.

The media only wants to get the view of the flaming radicals because they make better copy than those of us who are more sensible. I’m a feminist and I think I’ve done a lot of good.

We are at war with men, and most women don’t even know it.

Women who come to see me admit that they’ve never looked at their sex organ; they’ve never seen their clitoris. Now tell me if that isn’t a form of being psychologically genitally mutilated? For them, the clitoris doesn’t exist, but we’re worried about women in Africa!

I did large drawings of couples having sex! Men and woman enjoying intercourse and oral sex in a Madison Avenue Gallery? That was the first time I broke a barrier that made me think, some idiot is going to blow my brains out for sure.

I used to think masturbation was not really sex because it only involved me. That’s a very limited view of human sexuality, and it isn’t going to work for women.

When I found out after that first successful exhibition that the gallery wanted me to do another show like the first one, I come out two years later with four 6-foot drawings of classical nudes masturbating. The gallery director flipped the freak out!

I consider the 70s to be the youth of old age. So all you women out there who are afraid of getting older, just keep your orgasms in place, eat a lot of vegetables, take exercise, and you’ll be fine.

A monogamous marriage and family is what some women want – but not all of us. We are mostly doing serial monogamy anyway.

Women don’t run around saying, “Oh, I took a Bodysex workshop, and I had so much fun, and Betty Dodson taught us how to blah blah.” They come, they go, and I rarely hear from them again.

It’s very hard for a man to ask questions about sex. The smart ones do.

Vaginal penetration only doesn’t work for most of us. And we’re not all meant to be monogamous either, especially since women are capable of having far more sex than men. Try to get that fact across in America!
