“Prostitution requires for its diminution not only laws, well enforced, to abolish the traffic in womanhood; not only better social protection against harpies who seduce young girls seeking an honest livelihood; not only better chaperonage of young girls in exposed occupations; not only better opportunities for natural enjoyment of youthful pleasure under morally safe conditions; not only these - but most of all, greater power on the part of the average young girl to earn her own support under right conditions and for a living wage.” WellsLawYoungGirlOpportunitySocialNaturalPleasurePowerSupportGreaterConditionsHonestSafeAverageSeekingProtectionEnjoymentOccupationExposedTrafficWomanhoodProstitutionAbolishLivelihoodSeducingLiving WageGreater PowerHarpies Author:Anna Garlin Spencer

“Indeed, girls can be so in need of social approval that they confuse harassment for acceptance--thinking that any attention is better than none.

School is either pure torment or is going fantastically. Other people are either great or horrible, and they themselves are wonderful or pathetic failures.

For girls, the family was to be the world, their field of action the domestic circle.
