Joanna Russ

"Long before I became a feminist in any explicit way, I had turned from writing love stories about women in which women were losers, and adventure stories about men in which the men were winners, to writing adventure stories about a woman in which the woman won. It was one of the hardest things I ever did in my life."

"The trouble with men is that they have limited minds. That's the troublewith women, too."["Existence"(1975)]"
