No trousers for women

I was amused to read yesterday about an arcane law, still technicaly in force in Paris, which bans women from wearing trousers. It made me think of the following quotation.

'The deep-down reason is the same as for the wrongness of women's trousers: the unwomaning of woman. The deep-down cause in both cases is that Revolutionary man has betrayed modern woman; since she is not respected and loved for being a woman, she tries to make herself a man. Since modem man does not want her to do what God meant her to do, namely to have children, she takes her revenge by invading all kinds of things that man is meant to do. What else was to be expected? Modern man has only himself to blame.' Bishop Richard Williamson
