Nor is semantics a device for establishing that everyone except the speaker and his friends is speaking nonsense

Ha fomentado en todos los hombres ilusiones de grandeza que son injustificadas. Si como hombre puedes pensar que todo lo grande del mundo y su civilización fue creado por los hombres, entonces naturalmente tienes que menospreciar a las mujeres. Y naturalmente, tienes que tener aspiraciones diferentes para tus hijos y para tus hijas.
