“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

“Letterwriting is the natural outlet of the "odds." The busy-bodies, the idle, the perverted, the cranks, the feel-it-my-duties ... Also the plain depraved. They all write letters. It's their safe outlet, you see. They can be as interfering, as long-winded, as obscene, as pompous, as one-idea'd, as they like on paper, and no one can kick them for it. So they write. My God, how they write!” FeelsWritingLongIdeasBodyNaturalDutySafePaperLettersBusyKicksOddsInterfereIdleOutletsObscenePompousDepravedCrank Author:Josephine Tey
“And when comfort is what we want, one of the most powerful tonics alternative medicine offers is the word 'natural.' This word implies a medicine untroubled by human limitations, contrived wholly by nature or God or perhaps intelligent design. What 'natural' has come to mean to us in the context of medicine is 'pure' and 'safe' and 'benign'. But the use of 'natural' as a synonym for 'good' is almost certainly a product of our profound alienation from the natural world.” WorldWantHumansMeanUseNaturalPowerfulDesignProductsComfortOffersPureSafeIntelligentMedicineProfoundAlternativesLimitationMost PowerfulAlienationNatural WorldBenignIntelligent DesignSynonymAlternative Medicine Author:Eula Biss
