Needing Each Other

When feminists talk about autonomy they don’t mean it in the traditional “laissez-faire” style we’ve been trained to hear them as. Feminist autonomy is a far richer and more interesting conception: one in which people do depend on each other and can expect things of each other.

Ayn Rand’s worst nightmare…but then, that’s a feature, not a bug.
