About This Quote

While it is true that women started out as mere property to be owned by men, it is also true that they were once considered equals to men. Women fought alongside men in wars and made a great contribution to the cause in which they fought in. They were in the same trenches in which men were fighting and in some cases died in their place. Women who disapprove of men should remember how we started out, and how far we had to travel.
