I need the money, people are very coy about money, and the ladies arent just coy, they are sci fi about money… …people ask, well, dont sweet things happen? yes, indeed, many sweet things, but sweet doesnt keep you from dying, making love doesnt keep you from dying unless you get paid, writing doesnt keep you from dying unless you get paid, being wise doesnt keep you from dying unless you get paid, facts are facts, being poor makes you face facts which also does not keep you from dying.

I want to continue to help women. Like Dworkin their essential impulse when they see human beings living freely is to try and control or stop them – for their own good. The imperative at the heart of my writing – what must be done – comes directly from my life.

An anti-war activist and anarchist in the late 1960s Dworkin wrote 10 books on radical feminist theory and practice. Andrea Rita Dworkin (September 26 1946 – April 9 2005) was an American radical feminist and writer best known for her criticism of pornography which Andrea Dworkin argued was linked to rape and other forms of violence against women.
