Dworkin’s passionate advocacy against sexual violence and her critique of pornography made her a polarizing figure, yet her legacy endures as a catalyst for discussions around women's rights and liberation. She passed away in 2005, leaving a profound impact on feminist discourse.

"Feminism is hated because women are hated. Anti-feminism is a direct expression of misogyny; it is the political defense of women hating."
Andrea Dworkin"As long as there is rape... there is not going to be any peace or justice or equality or freedom. You are not going to become what you want to become or who you want to become. You are not going to live in the world you want to live in."
