My conception of woman is inevitably the feminine conception; a thing so entirely unlike the masculine conception of woman that it is eminently needful to define the term and make my meaning clear; lest, when I speak of woman in my own tongue, my reader, being male, translate the expression, with confusion as the result. By a woman, then, I understand an individual human being whose life is her own concern; whose worth, in my eyes (worth being an entirely personal matter) is in no way advanced or detracted from by the accident of marriage; who does not rise in my estimation by reason of a purely physical capacity for bearing children, or sink in my estimation through a lack of that capacity.

Paperback. Etat : NEW. Print on Demand. This book explores the intricate relationship between women and the institution of marriage, arguing that it has historically been a form of economic dependence rather than a union of equals. The author contends that the expectation for women to rely on marriage for financial security has limited their opportunities and shaped their behavior. By examining the historical and social forces that have influenced this dynamic, the book sheds light on the challenges faced by women in achieving autonomy and equality. Through a comprehensive analysis of the social and economic factors that have shaped women's roles, this book offers valuable insights into the historical context of gender dynamics and the ongoing struggle for women's rights.
