Men trade unionists are accused of sex privilege and prejudice … A belief in the divine right of every man to his job is not peculiar to kings and capitalists, and men in organised trades are not disposed to share these advantages with a host of women competitors.
Barbara Drake
Quote of the day
Give us that grand word 'woman' once again, And let's have done with 'lady'; one's a term Full of fine force, strong, beautiful, and firm, Fit for the noblest use of tongue or pen; And one's a word for lackeys.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
