Little by little, very slowly, and with most unjust and cruel opposition, at cost of all life holds most dear, it is being gradually established by many martyrdoms that human work is woman’s as well as man’s.
To specialize any form of labor is a step up: to organize it is another step.
To teach, to rule, to make, to decorate, to distribute,—these are not sex-functions: they are race-functions.
What we do modifies us more than what is done to us.
