A man running after a hat is not half so ridiculous as a man running after a woman.

I should favour anything that would increase the present enormous authority of women and their creative action in their own homes. The average woman...is a despot; the average man is a serf.

Variability is one of the virtues of a woman. It avoids the crude requirement of polygamy. So long as you have one good wife you are sure to have a spiritual harem".

The average woman is at the head of something with which she can do as she likes; the average man has to obey orders and do nothing else.
