Girls are taught in order to make them compliant: intellectual adventurousness is drained, punished, ridiculed out of girls.”

Andrea Dworkin Quote: “The numbers grow as the technology and its accessibility grow. The technology by its very nature encourages more and more passive acquiescence to the graphic depictions.
