Let us treat Women as our equals, (says [the ‘blubblering dotard’ xD Cato]) and they will immediately want to become our mistresses.” ‘Tis Cato says it, and therefore there needs no proof. Besides, to oblige men to prove all they advance by reason, wou’d be imposing silence upon them; a grievance to which they are perhaps full as unequal as they pretend we are. But granting Cato to be infallible in his assertions, what then? Have not Women as much right to be mistresses, as the Men have to be masters? No, says Cato. But why? Because they have not. Such convincing arguments must make us fond of hearing him farther. If we make the Women our equals, “they will demand that to-morrow as a tribute, which they receive to-day as a grace.” But where is the grace in granting us a share in what we have an equal right to? Have not the Women an equal claim to power and dignity with the Men?
