I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet.” One can imagine how misogynist men have used these words to justify their sexism and discrimination. | | |

The lavish set in the gigantic studio was most impressive; and I, of course, was immediately struck by the beautiful white 9-foot concert grand Steinway prominently positioned on the stage. | | |
