    ... men need women more than women need men; and so, aware of this fact, man has sought to keep woman dependent upon him economically as the only method open to him of making himself necessary to her.

    To tell Your simplest want, and known,
    Wailing upon a woman’s knee,
    All of that worst ignominy
    Of flesh and bone....
