Comment: Wishing - all prosperity - to the Freewoman, Watson reads Marsden's editorial - Bondwomen - as a declaration that - freedom can be attained only by an infinitely small number of Super-Women - If that be the case, the paper runs the risk of looking - with no more than a disdainful tolerance on the needs of the vast masses of average women - The magazine's belief that - any satisfactory society can be built on the basis of a complete freedom in sex matters - is moreover strongly criticized by Watson. |
