Norma Alarcón

I question whether feminism can be defined without saying that it harbors an idealist political philosophy that calls for a thorough transformation of our society, that seeks to deconstruct and reconstruct the world so that it is habitable for girls, women, and our queer futurity.

— Norma Alarcón

My feminist idealism will not yield to pragmatism because it feels like giving up on the future we want to have and in which we want to live.

— Norma Alarcón

To Freud's confusion on what do women want, I would say we want to dismantle a racist and misogynist heteronormative patriarchy that sucks the life out of women.
