article in magazine In
- which the writer. Helen Van
Pelt Wilson, said: Il expect to break
the news to my daughter very early
that this is a mans world. made for
them and run by them. Women who
early recognize this fact and grace
fully accept it save themselves a lot
Of trouble and get places in the end "
What do you think of that? BOB.
Answer-I. think it is true Man
got the bulge on woman at the start.
He was made first. BY the time
woman got here he had pre-empted
pretty much everything worth having.
and he has kept the initial advan-
tages thus gained ever since.
Men, take them by and large. are
bigger and have more physical
strength than women. They think.
at any rate, that they have better
brains, and undubitably there are
more men geniuses than there are
women. and men have achieved many
triumphs OF which no woman would be
capable They made the laws that
govern society and adopted the con-
ventions which are easy on themselves
and hard on women. They have
copped the best jobs, monopolized
most of the pleasures and perquisites.
and made it a mans world About
the only field they have left open for
WON ems exclusive use are the matern-
ity hospitals.
There isn't a thing that women
have to do that isn't harder for them
to do than it is for men, just by rea-
son of their being women. 1t is harder
for a girl to get married than it is for
boy, because the girl has to sit
pretty and suck her thumbs until
some lad goes by and notices her,
whereas he can 60 out and hunt up
wife if he wants one. If she mar
ries, she is ten times as much mar
ried to her husband as he is to her.
She has to do most of the adjusting.
and most of the gum Shoeing around
prejudices and ways and whims If
the marriage is to be success. She
has to give up her name and take his,
and sink her individuality into his.
k>x X
IF SHE goes into business, she has
to be twice as capable. do twice
as much work and accept a lower
wage than a man would get to hold
down the job. And If she is a pro-
fessional woman. she has to give up
her career for which she has spent
years of study and thousands of dol
lars If she wants to be good wife
and mother.
There you are. Men are not to
blame for the handicaps under which
women labor Things were just made
that way. And so as 1t is impossible
for women to compete with men on
an even plane, I agree with Mrs. Will
son that it is wise for women to ac-
cept the fact and cooperate with
them instead of becoming their rivals.
