To the Editor of The Times.

致泰晤士報的編輯

Sir, After reading Sir Almroth Wright's able and weighty exposition of women as he knows them, the question seems no longer to be "Should women have votes?" but "Ought women not to be abolished altogether?"

先生，在讀過阿爾姆羅思·懷特對于女性的重要闡述后，現(xiàn)在的問題似乎不再是“女性應(yīng)該有投票權(quán)嗎?”， 而是“女性不應(yīng)該被完全廢除嗎?”

I have been so much impressed by Sir Almroth Wright's disquisition, backed as it is by so much scientific and personal experience, that I have come to the conclusion that women should be put a stop to.

阿爾姆羅思先生的論述由那么多科學(xué)依據(jù)和個人經(jīng)驗所支持，這讓我印象深刻。我由此得出結(jié)論，女性應(yīng)該停止繁衍。

We learn from him that in their youth they are unbalanced, that from time to time they suffer from unreasonableness and hypersensitiveness, and that their presence is distracting and irritating to men in their daily lives and pursuits.

從他的文字中我們可以學(xué)到，女性在青年時期就是發(fā)展不平衡的，她們時不時的會有不合理或者神經(jīng)過敏的行為。她們的存在會激怒男性，使他們在日常生活和人生追求中分心。

If they take up a profession, the indelicacy of their minds makes them undesirable partners for their male colleagues.

如果她們從事某個職業(yè)，她們頭腦的不協(xié)調(diào)性會讓男性同事不愿意和她們共事。
