• ‟ The feminist movement is not about success for women. It is about treating women as victims and about telling women that you can't succeed because society is unfair to you, and I think that's a very unfortunate idea to put in the minds of young women because I believe women can do whatever they want.

  - Phyllis Schlafly
  

• ‟ Since the women are the ones who bear the babies, and there's nothing we can do about that, our laws and customs then make it the financial obligation of the husband to provide the support. It is his obligation and his sole obligation. And this is exactly and precisely what we will lose if the Equal Rights Amendment is passed.

• ‟ A lot of people don't understand what feminism is. They think it is about advance and success for women, but it's not that at all. It is about power for the female left.

  - Phyllis Schlafly
  

• ‟ I think the main goal of the feminist movement was the status degradation of the full-time homemaker. They really wanted to get all women out of the homes and into the workforce.

  - Phyllis Schlafly
