Addressing the relationship between the sexes in 1922—“we have made rather a mess of it!”—a pioneering feminist objects to the silence over sex in her time. She discusses the inequality of the sexes, friendship, divorce, marriage, the unmarried, chivalry, and other topics—in a tone that is at once spiritual and truly physical.

Agnes Maude Royden (1876-1956) was born in Liverpool; she became a preacher and the first woman to earn a Doctor of Divinity degree. She broke with the National Union of Women’s Suffrage Societies over its support for World War I but renounced pacifism in the war against Nazism. Her writings include Women and the Sovereign State (1917), Beauty in Religion (1923), and Life’s Little Pitfalls (1925).
