Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Talks to Young Women
It is my pleasure as well as my duty to insist, in the first instance, upon woman's intrinsic su periority. This predication must be made care fully, and understood as it is intended. There are many ways in which the two sexes can be compared and contrasted, in some of which the one, and in some of which the other, would have to be accorded precedence. When, therefore, I assert woman's superiority, it requires to be pre mised that I am not thinking of her strength, nor of her capabilities of effect, but purely and simply of the intrinsic quality of womanly fiber. Quite apart from all that She does and the Sphere of her activities, the question comes upon the mat ter of her personal texture, the refinement of its organization, and it is with that only in mind that I want to claim for her a clear and easy supremacy.
