Best Quotes by Laura Antoniou (Top 5)

  1. This used to be about sex. The literature of my people was pornography, filled with cries for mercy, drama enacted on people without prolonged negotiation, partners engaged in a dance in the middle of a bonfire. Now, it's 300-page manuals about how to make sure nothing bad will happen.
  2. Fantasies aren't reality, I know, I know, I know. Except when they are. Except when you make them into reality.
  3. Safe, sane and consensual what do those words really mean? Assimilation, that's what.
  4. What goes on when people overfetishize safety is that they're relapsing into that old frame of mind that what we're doing is BAD.
  5. The trouble is, SMers are allowing themselves to be defined by what they are not. We think, "Oh, so many people believe that we're all murderers and rapists, and we have to explain that we're not!" Uh so, a slogan for the gay civil rights movement should be "Normal, Non-threatening and Not After Your Children"?
