A woman who complains that men don't give up their subway seats for her is reminded "In today's world you share equal rights with men...equal education, equal votes!" and women have proved that they are not "delicate flower[s]" by serving in the armed forces, participating in sports, and "even driving trucks and piloting planes!"
