"the trouble is," sighed the doctor, grasping her meaning intuitively, "that youth is given up to illusions. it seems to be a provision of nature; a decoy to secure mothers for the race. and nature takes no account of moral consequences, of arbitrary conditions which we create, and which we feel obliged to maintain at any cost." what larger idea is the doctor referring to when he says that nature takes no account of moral consequences? impulses often overrule a person’s sense of good and bad. nature forces women into motherhood. young people are prone to having delusions. morals play no role when we choose who we love.

Read the passage from a vindication of the rights of woman. that the society is formed in the wisest manner, whose constitution is founded on the nature of man, strikes, in the abstract, every thinking being so forcibly, that it looks like presumption to endeavour to bring forward proofs; though proof must be brought, or the strong hold of prescription will never be forced by reason; yet to urge prescription as an argument to justify the depriving men (or women) of their natural rights, is one of the absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense. does wollstonecraft maintain an objective tone in the passage? yes, because she uses objective language such as “society is formed in the wisest manner.” yes, because she uses objective language such as “it looks like presumption to endeavor.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “though proof must be brought, or the strong hold.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense.”
