Now why should that man have fainted? But he did,and right across my path by the wall, so that I had to creep over him every time!

The female of genus homo is economically dependent on the male. He is her food supply.

Shall you complain who feed the world? Who clothe the world? Who house the world? Shall you complain who are the world, Of what the world may do? As from this hour You use your power, The world must follow you!

It is the same woman, I know, for she is always creeping, and most women do not creep by daylight.
