Example Sentences
- "The absurdly low sentences against men convicted of assault, the utterly inadequate protection against seduction, the tolerance by society of a double standard of morals in the præmarital state, the advocacy, even by an eminent Judge, of an inequality between man and woman in the laws of divorce — these are the things which give the lie to Sir Almroth Wright’s complacent assumption that “under this covenant a full half of the programme of Christianity has been realized.”"
- "If it is so, it is hard to understand why those people who allow præmarital freedom and do not enforce conjugal fidelity, should marry at all."
