Context
“I will vote for it when women have left off making a noise in the reading-room of the British Museum, when they leave off wearing high head-dresses in the pit of a theatre and when I have seen as many as twelve women in all catch hold of the strap or bar on getting into an omnibus.
Manners Makyth Man
Yes, but they make woman still more.
Women and Religion
It has been said that all sensible men are of the same religion and that no sensible man ever says what that religion is. So all sensible men are of the same opinion about women and no sensible man ever says what that opinion is.
Happiness
Behold and see if there be any happiness like unto the happiness of the devils when they found themselves cast out of Mary Magdalene.”
