ABSTRACT
Woman is far from being so different from man as the reactionaries and the apologists of our established order would have us believe. The conflict between professional occupation and motherhood, which we have here been able to consider but sketchily, is not the only dilemma which the intellectual married woman has to face. Thus, male and female cases alike, there is an abnormal cultivation, though in opposite directions, of the instincts of sex. For women for men, sexual love is an end in itself, and must not be regarded merely as a means to motherhood. The conflict between professional occupation and motherhood, which we have here been able to consider but sketchily, is not the only dilemma which the intellectual married woman has to face. Woman is physiologically devoted to the child in this stage of its career by the function of lactation.
