country children men
Hundreds, thousands, aye, millions of human beings, men, women and children, wander the streets of our cities and the highways of our country, hungry, ragged and cold, vainly seeking in this land of plenty, where physical want should be unknown.
mean men doors
To go behind a man's hall-door is mean, cowardly, unfair opposition.
men treats fairs
Is it fair to treat a woman worse than a man, and then revile her because she is a woman?
men occupation
Woman, no less than man, can qualify herself for the more onerous occupations of life.
men feminist demand
If women would today would rise en masse and demand their emancipation, the men would be compelled to grant it.
men reason score
there are scores of thousands of women who are denominated prostitutes, and who are supported by hundreds of thousands of men who should, for like reasons, also be denominated prostitutes, since what will change a woman into a prostitute must also necessarily change a man into the same.
men issues feminist
Let women issue a declaration of independence sexually, and absolutely refuse to cohabit with men until they are acknowledged as equals in everything, and the victory would be won in a single week.
believe men damnation
I believe in Spiritualism; I advocate free love in the highest, purest sense, as the only cure for the damnation by which men corrupt God's most holy institution of sexual relations.
men brutality vote
Woman's ability to earn money is better protection against the tyranny and brutality of men than her ability to vote.
husband men needs
There is something wrong with a government that makes women the legal property of their husbands. The whole system needs changing, but men will never make the changes. They have too much to lose.
american-activist principles subjects
My opinions and principles are subjects of just criticism. I put myself before the public voluntarily.
perfection heaven purity
I supposed that to marry was to be transported to a heaven not only of happiness but of purity and perfection.
sacrifice victim made
I do not intend to be made the scapegoat of sacrifice, to be offered up as a victim to society.
husband perfect wife
I imagined that the priestly ceremony was perfect sanctification, and that the sin of sins was for either husband or wife to be false to that relation.
