Female Oppression
No one who has studied history, even superficially,will for a moment dispute the statement that therehas brooded very steadily over1 the female half ofthe human family an air of repression, of limitation,of hindrance , of disability, of gloom, of servitude.If there have been epochs during which women havebeen regarded equal to men, they have been briefand abnormal.
Among the Hindus2, woman was the slave of man , forbidden to speak the language of hermaster, and compelled to use the patois3 of the slaves. The Hebrews pronounced her anafterthought4 of the Deity, and the mother of all evils. The Greek law regarded her as a child,and held her in life -long tutelage. The Greek philosophers proclaimed her a “monster”,“ anaccidental production”. Medieval councils declared her unfit for instruction. The early Christianfathers denounced her as a“ noxious animal”, a“painted temptress”, a“ necessary evil”,“adesirable calamity”, and a“ domestic peril”.
In marriage she has been a serf; as a mother she has been robbed of her children; in publicinstruction she has been ignored; in labor she has been a menial, and then inadequatelycompensated; civilly she has been a minor, and politically she has had no existence. She hasbeen the equal of man only when punishment and the payment of taxes were in question5 .
