Abstract
“The ‘Monstrous Regiment’ of Womanhood” takes its title from John Knox’s diatribe against female rulers The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstrous Regiment of Women, published as recently as 1558. Even so, it is arguably the most reasoned of the three essays, having originally been published in 1897 under the less provocative heading “The everlasting female”. Nowadays anyone who protests against injustice to men in the interests of women is either abused as an unfeeling brute or sneered at as a crank. The ‘advanced’ women present on the occasion referred to, to their shame be it said, did not insist on making the resolution apply to both sexes. Many Socialists, indeed, believe that the sex-question altogether is so entirely bound up with the economic question that it will immediately solve itself on the establishment of a collectivist order of society.
