Equality
Equality may refer to:
Gender
Gender is the range of characteristics pertaining to, and differentiating between, masculinity and femininity. Depending on the context, these characteristics may include biological sex (i.e., the state of being male, female, or an intersex variation), sex-based social structures (i.e., gender roles), or gender identity. People who do not identify as men or women or with masculine or feminine gender pronouns are often grouped under the umbrella terms non-binary or genderqueer. Some cultures have specific gender roles that are distinct from "man" and "woman," such as the hijras of South Asia. These are often referred to as third genders.
Equality
For some must follow, and some command
Though all are made of clay!
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Kéramos (1878), line 6.
Equality
By political equality Social-Democrats mean equal rights, and by economic equality, as we have already said, they mean the abolition of classes. As for establishing human equality in the sense of equality of strength and abilities (physical and mental), socialists do not even think of such things.
Vladimir Lenin, "A Liberal Professor on Equality", 1914. Reprinted in Lenin on the United States, International Publishers, 1970, (p. 94), and in Lenin: Collected Works, Progress Publishers, 1972, Moscow, Volume 20, (p.145).
Gender
Some men think that staying away from sex psychs them to win, but most of the women I know get psyched by having sex.
Suzy Chaffee, as quoted in Women & Sports (1979) by Janice Kaplan.
