Silence is what allows people to suffer without recourse, what allows hypocrisies and lies to grow and flourish, crimes to go unpunished.

Of course, some people's "decadence" is other people's "liberation;" the exhaustion with child - bearing a child - rearing that Douthat finds so troubling is the weariness of women who've borne the children and, until very recently, raised them largely on their own, their "basic sacrifices" the sacrifices of individual identity, social relationships, or the pursuit of equality in the world.

She organized a Ladies Physiological Society in 1843 where she gave monthly talks. She remained single, defying convention here too.
