The Men’s Tribune is a series that NO-MAAM cites hundreds of books that illumine of female nature.
“There are people in Europe who, confounding together the different characteristics of the sexes, would make man and woman into beings not only equal but alike. They would give to both the same functions, impose on both the same duties, and grant to both the same rights; they would mix them in all things – their occupations, their pleasures, their business. It may readily be conceived that by thus attempting to make one sex equal to the other, both are degraded, and from so preposterous a medley of the works of nature nothing could ever result but weak men and disorderly women.”
Alexis de Tocqueville
“I [would] rather have live vermin on my back than the tongue of one of these Washington women on my reputation. “
Andrew Jackson
