“Women live in a man's world. We're expected to behave like men and ignore our menstrual cycle which is changing our reality every week of the month. You need to learn to honor and listen to your body, and accept the fact that your body is constantly changing.” – Molly Maloof, MD

Power Quotes From The Show
The Reality Of Division
“Division has a neurology of connection in it because the reason why people divide is that they find safety in their in-group. The vasopressin hormone is at play when you're trying to attack and defend another group. There's a very small percentage of people that are on each side of these polarities that are really vocal and loud. The vast majority of people are in the middle.” – Molly Maloof, MD
Biological Differences Between Men And Women
“The concept of “there's no such thing as gender” is bullshit. We have fundamental biological differences. The idea that kids should not be raised with gender is absurd. We have different responsibilities biologically, in terms of what our bodies are here to do. Our body has primitive programming and we need to honor that and not just ignore it.” – Molly Maloof, MD
What Is Love?
“Love is a motivational force. It's supposed to bring you together with another person so you'll share information, resources, and your bodies, create people, attach yourself, defend and protect one another, and have a bond that's so strong that you stay together to keep your children protected and nourished. Love is designed to propagate the species and enhance our survival and familial bonds.” – Molly Maloof, MD
