'Oh, Well, You Know How Women Are!' AND 'Isn't That Just Like a Man!

This pair of essays represent a fascinating glimpse of the gender rights rhetoric of the early twentieth century. Rambling, by turns patronizing, sexist, admiring and reverential, the authors reflect on many topics from suffrage to fashion. A quick read that is both humorous and thought-provoking. It's a double book, half written by a man, half written by a woman, that puts the battle of the sexes down in print.
