(Of course, 'twould not be rational to draw conclusions about all humanists.) <br /><br />I take it you understand Dutch? In the comments to the follow-up post <a href="http://avindicationoftherightsofmary.blogspot.com/2011/11/its-all-dutch-to-me.html" rel="nofollow">It's All Dutch to Me</a>, Marjorie gives a summary. Can you add to that?

Congratulations are in order and it is with much satisfaction that I listened to the Dutch expressing their admiration for your erudite and perspicacious views.

My daughter may have quoted me, but I said it first. Or wrote it, rather - in chapter 4 of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman: " 'Educate women like men,' says Rousseau, 'and the more they resemble our sex the less power will they have over us.' This is the very point I aim at. I do not wish them to have power over men; but over themselves."Roberta Wedgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13619847452197496153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836032513708232334.post-3726918710856585772011-10-29T20:25:03.346+01:002011-10-29T20:25:03.346+01:00"Women do not need power over men, but over t..."Women do not need power over men, but over themselves." -- I was under the impression that her daughter was the one who said (wrote?) this quote.
