...Man is an insolent, domineering, self-sufficient animal let him say what he will about the elevation of the female mind, we believe no man ever fell in love with the woman whom he felt to be wiser than himself. He could not endure for a partner for life, such a perpetual looking-glass, and reminder of his own infirmities ; he could not bear the constant attestation of his own weakness.
Just some pleasure reading you've decided to take on?
It's an exercise in confirming stereotypes through nose types, without any pretense of scientific inquiry whatsoever. Phrenology's impoverished cousin or something, I dunno.
I appreciate how often he makes it obvious that he has been dumped one time too many by a lady cleverer than he.
