Sir, After reading Sir Almroth Wright’s able and weighty exposition of women as he knows them, the question seems no longer to be “Should women have votes?” but “Ought women not to be abolished altogether?”
先生,在读过阿尔姆罗思·怀特对于女性的重要阐述后,现在的问题似乎不再是“女性应该有投票权吗?”, 而是“女性不应该被完全废除吗?”
I have been so much impressed by Sir Almroth Wright’s disquisition, backed as it is by so much scientific and personal experience, that I have come to the conclusion that women should be put a stop to.
阿尔姆罗思先生的论述由那么多科学依据和个人经验所支持,这让我印象深刻。我由此得出结论,女性应该停止繁衍。
We learn from him that in their youth they are unbalanced, that from time to time they suffer from unreasonableness and hypersensitiveness, and that their presence is distracting and irritating to men in their daily lives and pursuits.
从他的文字中我们可以学到,女性在青年时期就是发展不平衡的,她们时不时的会有不合理或者神经过敏的行为。她们的存在会激怒男性,使他们在日常生活和人生追求中分心。
If they take up a profession, the indelicacy of their minds makes them undesirable partners for their male colleagues.
如果她们从事某个职业,她们头脑的不协调性会让男性同事不愿意和她们共事。
