书里有一个 Lady 办了一个孤儿院,但是只收男孩。面对警察的疑问她的解释是:
experience has taught me that the talents with which the female nature is endowed are often such that modern society is not yet ready to understand them appropriately. We live in the age of men, and we are obliged to take that into consideration. In a society where men are the bosses, an exceptionally talented woman arouses suspicion and hostility. I would not wish my foster-daughters to feel unhappy.
。。这个思维跟那些说想生男孩因为不想让孩子受苦的人好像啊
