CRAIK : A Woman's Thoughts about Woman, 1858. 1 84 INFANTS AND EQUATIONS A GREAT many of the lesser and more obscure duties of life necessarily devolve upon the female sex. The arrangement of all household matters, and the care of children in their early infancy, must of course depend upon them. Now, there is a very general notion, that the moment you put the education of women upon a better footing than it is at present, at that moment there will be an end of domestic economy ; and that, if yo...u once suffer women to eat of the tree of knowledge, the rest of the family will very soon be reduced to the same kind of aerial and unsatisfactory diet. These, and all such opinions, are referable to one great and common cause of error : that man does everything, and that nature does nothing ; and that everything we see is referable to some positive institu- tion, rather than to original feeling. Can anything, for example, be more perfectly absurd than to suppose that the care and perpetual solicitude which a mother feels for her children, depends upon her ignorance of Greek and mathematics ; and that she would desert an infant for a quadratic equation ?
