Men call women faithless, changeable, and though they say it in jealousy of their own ever-threatened sexual honor, there is some truth in it. We can change our life, our being; no matter what our will is, we are changed. As the moon changes yet is one, so we are virgin, wife, mother, grandmother. For all their restlessness, men are who they are; once they put on the man's toga they will not change again; so they make a virtue of that rigidity and resist whatever might soften it and set them free. ↗

— Ursula K. Le Guin

The word love has by no means the same sense for both sexes, and this is one cause of the serious misunderstandings that divide them. ↗

The sexes in each species of being... are always true equivalents - equals but not identical. ↗

I don't see why I can't have friends of both sexes without wild rumors being circulated. It's crazy. ↗
