[88]           Mary scribbled here a note on the edge of the page:

 

      “Shall I omit this, before the book is published?”

 

      I guess Mary was worried lest men would read this line, and start suspecting their wives.

 

      I decided to leave this remark, thinking that we’ve reached a stage in history, in which men started recognising women’s talents, and cunning is no longer needed in man/woman relations.

 

      Well, at least in some quarters of the Western world. And at least until America will be less great again.

Annie Aukley and her husband, Frank Butler. Another woman who dedicated her life to promote Women's rights. (and not as assumed by Hollywood, to belittle herself in order the get a husband...)

How do you feel about women belittling themselves for the sake of their men?

What readers say?

("The Happy Hooker" and dozen more books):

We've been friends  for almost half a century and enjoyed several of each others' theatrical productions, so reading your memoir of Mrs. Gulliver is a wonderful surprise: so witty, subversive, and yet, arousing... it tickled my mind as well as inspired my G-spot. Highly recommended!
