How could woman rear her twenty children and at the same time do
other work? How could she keep every thought, every effort of
her brain on her offspring and develop her mind in other ways at
the same time?
Give a man one young child to take care of FOR ONE DAY, and when
you return to him you find a semi-imbecile, half-tearful
creature.
In every great man's life you hear some remark of this sort:
"How can I work, Maria, if you let the children make such a
noise?"
Well, how could the millions of Marias work with the children
hanging to their skirts all through history? ----
But a better day is ahead for woman, and we are proud to point it
out to her.
Wise men begin to wonder what we shall do when the earth is fully
peopled? Shall we kill surplus babies, or what shall we do?
There will be no surplus babies. Nature will arrange that.
For every two human beings on earth two new ones will be born.
Wars will be ended. Common sense will have done away with the
unnecessary illness which now robs millions of mothers.
No woman will have more than two children. Education will be
understood. Women will not be slaves to their babies. They will
be admired and thanked and made happy before the babies arrive
--instead of being half ashamed, as at present.
