THE theory on which this work is based is that the fundamental condition or Intelligence of the two sexes, or Man and Woman, is radically different, or corresponding to their physical creation and development. It is generally and popularly held that such difference as we perceive is simply the result of education, association, and habit; many regarding the entire past as a period during which Women have been oppressed and degraded by Man, forgetting that Man himself has also been subject to the suffering or slavery involved in the earlier stages of Evolution.
