The Odd Women

CHAPTER XIII
35/41

The old types of womanly perfection are no longer helpful to us.

Like the Church service, which to all but one person in a thousand has become meaningless gabble by dint of repetition, these types have lost their effect.

They are no longer educational.

We have to ask ourselves, What course of training will wake women up, make them conscious of their souls, startle them into healthy activity?
'It must be something new, something free from the reproach of womanliness.

I don't care whether we crowd out the men or not.
