But you will say, perhaps, that that applies only to young girls who are badly brought up, but that there is another education, an education that is serious, in the schools, an education in the dead languages, an education in the institutions of midwifery, an education in medical courses, and in other courses.

It is false.
"Every sort of feminine education has for its sole object the attraction of men.
"Some attract by music or curly hair, others by science or by civic virtue.

The object is the same, and cannot be otherwise (since no other object exists),--to seduce man in order to possess him.

Imagine courses of instruction for women and feminine science without men,--that is, learned women, and men not KNOWING them as learned.

Oh, no! No education, no instruction can change woman as long as her highest ideal shall be marriage and not virginity, freedom from sensuality.
