Simone de Beauvoir on Marriage and the Freedom to Change

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.themarginalian.org/2026/05/04/simone-de-beauvoir-marriage-change/

The point is not for women simply to take power out of men's hands, since that wouldn't change anything about the world. It's a question precisely of destroying that notion of power.

It must be pointed out that our society, so concerned to defend the rights of the embryo, shows no interest in the children once they are born; it prosecutes the abortionists instead of undertaking to reform that scandalous institution known as 'public assistance; those responsible for entrusting the children to their torturers are allowed to go free; society closes its eyes to the frightful tyranny of brutes in children's asylums and private foster homes.

A quotation from Simone de Beauvoir

It’s frightening to think that you mark your children merely by being yourself.
 
[C’est effrayant de penser qu’on marque ses enfants rien que par ce qu’on est.]

Simone de Beauvoir (1908-1986) French author, existentialist philosopher, feminist theorist
Les Belles Images, ch. 3 (1966) [tr. O’Brian (1968)]

“No one is more arrogant toward women, more aggressive or scornful, than the man who is anxious about his virility.”

Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex

If you haven't been happy very young, you can still be happy later on, but it's much harder. You need more luck.

The revival of the Rosebud bar, a historic artist hangout in Paris's Montparnasse neighbourhood.

When it opened in 1962, the bar was a hangout for writers such as Marguerite Duras, Samuel Beckett, Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir. It had lost some of its lustre but is now being revived by a new generation of artists.

I'm never afraid. But in my case it's nothing to be proud of.

"In der Garderobe traf ich meine Kameradinnen vom letzten Jahr wieder; ich war mit keiner besonders befreundet, aber ich mochte den Lärm, den wir alle zusammen veranstalteten."

Skye Cleary schreef met "Wat zou Simone de Beauvoir doen" een toegankelijke introductie in het werk van de Franse filosofe. Dit is direct wat het boek lezenswaardig maakt.

"One is not #born, but rather becomes, a #woman. No #biological, #psychological, or #economic destiny defines the figure that the #human #female acquires in #society; it is #civilization as a whole that develops this product, intermediate between female and #eunuch, which one calls #feminine. Only the mediation of another can establish an #individual as an #Other. In so far as he exists for himself, the #child would not be able to understand himself as sexually differentiated. In #girls as in #boys the #body is first of all the radiation of a #subjectivity, the instrument that accomplishes the comprehension of the world: it is through the eyes, the hands, and not through the sexual parts that children apprehend the universe."

—Simone de #Beauvoir, philosopher and social theorist, in The Second Sex (1949)

Just my favorite Second Wave feminist, shattering the entire concept of the gender binary and "biological womanhood" in one masterful swoop.
