Having just attended a class, wow!! So not confirmed, but heavily implied that Henry James was gay. Not meant to sound as if I’m generalizing this sexuality, but it has cleared up why James was able to portray a woman in such a way that shocked me. It’s possible for the straight man to truly see women, sure. But many don’t. Many choose not to. The influence of his cousin Minny Temple also contributes to it!

Wordle was right about pshaw.
Also, what an interesting way to display some of the more common misunderstandings that takes place between a man and a woman when conversing. On the topic of marriage, Henrietta mentioning that it’s everyone’s duty to marry became translated to Ralph seeing it as her way of encouraging interest.
Like yes, that’s soo human! I think it depends on the individuals too, of course.
