Caitlin Moran People Quotations

So this is why I can't agree with "don't feed the trolls." When millionaire celebrity broadcasters and entire publications start trolling, ignoring them isn't really an option anymore. They are gradually making trolling normative. We have to start feeding the trolls: feeding them with achingly polite emails and comments, reminding them of how billions of people prefer to communicate with each other, every day, in the most unregulated arena of all: courteously.

I know people go on about Twitter, but it is amazing. It's whatever you want it to be, and all the women got in there before the boys.

Feminism has had exactly the same problem that "political correctness" has had: people keep using the phrase without really knowing what it means.

I never wanted to be famous. It was amusing at first, but now I hate it. I just wanted to be respected by people I respect. And I wanted to be rich. It's best to get rich, then you can do what you want.

I think loads of women have this idea that their life is going to start at some point, once they've busted all these problems of being a woman, once we're thin and we're pretty and we've got all of our clothes and stuff, that's when our life will begin. And you meet people at 48 who are still thinking that, and 58.

People get really scared when women reclaim words, talk about themselves honestly and also make jokes because it's a really unstoppable combination.
