“What a denial of our humanity that at the centers of power, where decisions are made, there is no room for nurturing, for love, and children. There is more to life than the 'inhuman' work place. It is terrible that many men do not know that: it is a tragedy if women follow them.” IfsKnowsMenChildrenMadeHumanityWorkDecisionRoomsBusinessTerribleOfficeTragedyDenialNurturingInhumanMore To LifeWork Place Author:Dora Russell

“The origin of the stupid ideal of womanhood against which men as well as women to-day are still fighting was the asceticism of the Christian religion; and, unless St. Paul was a woman in disguise, I fail to see how woman is to be blamed for a conception of her place and duty from which she has suffered more than anybody else.” MenWellsStillsChristianFightingFailingStupidDutyIdealsConceptionDisguiseWomanhoodAsceticism Author:Dora Russell
“I read recently in an article by G.K. Chesterton, that sex without gestation and parturition is like blowing the trumpets and waving the flags without doing any of the fighting. From a woman such words, though displaying inexperience, might come with dignity; from a man they are an unforgivable, intolerable insult. What is man's part in sex but a perpetual waving of flags and blowing of trumpets and avoidance of the fighting?” MenMightFightingSexDignityInsultArticlesFlagsPerpetualAvoidanceTrumpetsUnforgivableInexperienceGestation Author:Dora Russell
