"Erkegin elleri kilicina sarilmakta ozgurdur, oysa kadin onlari satenlerin omuzlarinda kaymasini onlemek icin kullanmak zorundadir. Erkek dunyaya, sanki kendisi icin yaratilmis, kendi zevkine gore bicimlendirilmis gibi korkusuzca bakar; kadinsa sinsice, dahasi kusku dolu bir yan bakis atar. Ikisi de ayni giysileri giyselerdi, bakis acilari da belki ayni olabilirdi..."
"The man has his hand free to seize his sword, the woman must use hers to keep the satins from slipping from her shoulders. Had they both worn the same clothes. Different though the sexes are, they intermix. In every human a vacillation from one sex to the other takes place, and often it is only the clothes that keep the male or female likeness, while underneath the sex is the very opposite of what it is above.."
