“Being a Woman is the Most Arduous Career ‘A That Can ‘Possibly be Wished on a Human Being,” Says Dorothy Dix- “and in Comparison With it Being a Man is Simply a Graft”

' "Which job is the hardest ln life, that of being a man or that of {fling a woman?" I . Being a woman. , Being a woman is the most arduous and difficult and complicated and strenu- ous career that can possibly be wished on a human beingandincxrmpensonwithitbeingammiis

simply a graft.

course. If he turns out to be fairly easy on the eyes, reasonably moral, passably intelligent and well mannered and proficient enough in some oc- cupatlon to make a. living at it, he qualifies in the A1 class of men. If to these requirements he adds a fcw frills in the way of accomplishments, we beat upon the cymbals and brag of him if he is our son. Women strive for him as a husband and liostcizses run after him as

u dinner guest.

But we exp». i-"l 1i '.\ Iilhiii to have beauty and charm and uii iiiid uiiiia- bility and all the standardized virtues and to be a jack of all trades and professions, and even then it is nobody‘s business to shout in the market places about what a wonder she is.

Consider some of the hardships of the woman job:

To begin willi, Nature makes a. woman of frailei" physique than man and ‘-~_v.. upon h r heavier burdens to bear. It gives her all the: odds em.‘ cniis of nerves that were left over from making man and throws 1n a few l: tvvrlliilsi for extra measure. It makes her heir to nearly all the " s of nxm mid adds a large and varied assortment of her own. Even v woman knows more of sickness and suffering in a lifetime than ' vc a soi-clv invnlided man, and fcw soldiers on the battlefields are . -r culled upon to go through the agony that every mother does when the b11112." a child into the world. '

Then there is ‘he matter of beauty. A man's looks are his own pri- vnlc affair and cut no ice in his failure or success in the world. Nobody leaves hiin out of a party because he is thirty pounds overweight. No girl refuses to dance with him or go joyriding with him because he has; sandy hair. No woman turns him down when he asks her to marry him,’ because he has a pug nose instead of a classic profile. No employer de- clines to hire him because he has not soulful eyes and a roscbild mouth. If he has brains and ability and an agreeable personality. it doesn't mat- ter a whoop how homely he is.

But for otherwise is it with women. They are under the awful noc- esslty of adding beauty, whether they have it or not, to all their other accomplishments. A girl may have as many college degrees as there are letters in the alphabet, but she will never be invited to parties if she ls frumpy looking. She may be as humble and meek as Patient Griselda and as good _a cook as a French chef, but no man will ask her to marry him if she is fzit and bald-headed and pigeon-teed. She may have broken the typewritinr: record and know as much about finance as Hetty Green, out no man will hire her for a private secretary if she ls ugly.

Then there is work. Of course. there are a few millionaires’ wives, who have nothing to do but to throw money at the birds and divert themselves. so are there a. few millionaire men who are in the same rose, but we arc not discussing these gilded darlings of fortune, but just the average run of folks, even as you and I, and among poor people un- iloubtcrlly the women work harder than the men.

There are no union hours for the wife and mother. She is up long before the rest of the family, getting the breakfast for them, and she is still at ivonk long after they have gone to bed cleaning and washing and patching and mending so that husband and children may be decently clad when they go forth the next clay.

Not only dove the poor woman work harder than the man, but her work is more monotonous and less interesting than the man's because it brings licr no contact ivith the outside world, none of the diversion that o man gets in seeing and meeting and talking with different people.

Ifawomanworlcsoutsideofthehommahehaatodotwioensgood work as a man does and twice as much of it to get even approximately the same pay. The business world is still suspicious of women and they have to bc continually proving their worth to hold their jobs in it.

Moreover, when a. man makes good in one calling it is e-ll that is ex- pected of him. Nobody expects a lawyer to be also e. doctor or a banker m be an expertlplumber, but every wife and mother is expected to be a chef, a trained nurse, a baby expert, a dlctician, a. commissary depart- iiirnt, a purchasing agent, a seamstress, a lawyer, a. doctor, a priest, a hostess, a press agent, a diplomat. a savings bank and a vamp to boot. And when a woman takes on the job of a man of supporting a family, as so many do nowadays, she has still to keep on with her job of being a woman just the same and nurse the sick and cook the food and take care of the old and do the family shopping just as if she had nothing else to do.

And there is the matter of morality. The world judges men and women by different standards, and when a couple stray ofl the straight and narrow path it sends the woman to Coventry and asks the man to dinner. And it is folly to protest against this since Nature virtually does the same thing and sets the example. so the girl who is even foolish and qmy has to pay a heavier price for her folly than a man does for his sin.

These that I have enumerated are only a few of the many reasons why the job of being a woman is harder than the job of being n. man. If any other proof were needed, it would be found in the fact that. every woman wishes she was a man, nnd no man ever desired to be a woman.

“You‘ll pay for this, you swine!" and scrambled, soaking up the bank, an absurd. apparition rent with 111W.
