Even women who call themselves feminists don't always see through it. Once again women are being defined in terms of 'the other,' once again they are being made into the 'second sex' . In the life cycle, as in the Garden of Eden, the woman has been the deviant. Our ignorance of history causes us to slander our own times. No matter how much debate occurs the truth is not necessarily reached.
Most women have no character at all.
It gives one gooseflesh. The world has never yet seen a truly great and virtuous nation, because in the degradation of woman the very fountains of life are poisoned at their source. Nobody objects to a woman being a good writer or sculptor or geneticist if at the same time she manages to be a good wife, good mother, good looking, good tempered, well groomed and unaggressive. You have to admit that most women who have done something with their lives have been disliked by almost everyone. Women are the only exploited group in history who have been idealized into powerlessness.
