`
`HABITS OF SYSTEM AND OR.DER
`
`ANY discussion of the equality of the sexes, as to intellec(cid:173)
`tual capacity, seems frivolo11s and useless, both because it
`can never be decided, and because tl1ere would be no pos(cid:173)
`sible advantage in tl1e decision. But one topic, ,vhich is
`often drawn into this disc11Ssion, is of far more conseq11ence;
`and that is, tl1e relative importance and difficulty of the
`duties a woman is called to perform.
`It is generally ass1rmed, a11d almost as generally conceded,
`that a housekeeper's business and cares are contracted and
`trivial; and that tl1e proper discl1arge of lier d11ties de(cid:173)
`mands far less expansion of mind and vigor of i11tellect
`than the p11rsuits of tl1e otl1er sex. Tl1is idea has prevailed
`because women, as a n1ass, l1ave never been educated ,vith
`reference to tl1eir most important duties ; wl1ile that por-.
`tion of tl1eir employments ,vhicl1 is of least val11e l1as been
`regarded as the chief, if not tl1e sole, concern of a ,voman.
`The covering of the body, tl1e convenience of residences,
`a11d the gratification of the appetite, have been too much
`regarded as the chief objects on whicl1 her intellectual
`powers are to be exercised.
`But as society gradually sl1ak:es off the re1nnants of bar·
`barism and the intellectual and moral interests of man rise,
`in esti1nation, above the merely sensual, a tr11er estimate is
`formed of woman's duties, and of tl1e meas11re of intellect
`requisite for tl1e proper discharge of the1n. Let any man
`of sense and discernment become the member of a lru:ge
