Quotes
Ms. is a title of respect for a woman regardless of marital status. - Gloria Steinem
I've been practicing law for 14 years, and I've never been able to figure out what 'Ms.' means. - Andrea Martin
I don't call myself a feminist, but I'm a woman and I don't like how things are unequal for me. And I don't like how things are unequal for minorities, for gays, for people who are not rich or middle class, whatever that means. I don't like the injustice of it. And I have a voice and I have an opinion, but I'm not always articulate, and I'm not always right. I don't have the answers. I don't even have all the questions. But I have something to say. And I'm a woman. And I have the right to say it. And I don't want to be defined by it. I don't want to be called Ms. or Miss or Mrs. I don't want to be defined by my husband or my children or my occupation. - Ellen DeGeneres
