race into two halves she did not make the division quite through the
middle. With all polarity, the distinction between the positive and the
negative pole is no merely qualitative, but at the same time a
quantitative one. It is thus that the ancients and the oriental peoples
regarded women, and accordingly recognized much more correctly the place
belonging to them than we, with our old French gallantry and tasteless
woman-worship, that highest bloom of Germano-Christian stupidity, which
has only served to make them arrogant and callous; so much so that one

would be very desirable therefore that even in Europe this number two of
the human race should be again referred to her natural place, and that a
term should be put to the lady-nonsense, at which not only all Asia
laughs, but at which Greece and Rome would also have laughed. The
consequence of this in a social, civil, and political connection, would
be inconceivably advantageous. The Salic Law as a superfluous truism,
