“brain, as men did. Cassandra was, of course, Florence Nightingale. She wrote: Why have women passion, intellect, moral activity, and a place in society where no one of the three can be exercised?…Now, why is it more ridiculous for a man than for a woman to do worsted work and drive out every day in the carriage? Why should we laugh if we were to see a panel of men sitting around a drawing room table in the morning, and think it all right if they were women? Is man’s time more valuable than women’s?…Women”
