What can a man say about woman, his own opposite? I mean of course something sensible, that is outside the sexual program, free of resentment, illusion, and theory. Where is the man to be found capable of such superiority? Woman always stands just where the man’s shadow falls, so that he is only too liable to confuse the two. Then, when he tries to repair this misunderstanding, he overvalues her and believes her the most desirable thing in the world.
From Women In Europe (1927)

This would have been a great comment to add to my story. Men writing about women? It’s like whites writing about blacks ..
Derek, in fact that’s exactly why I posted it :)
