" There's nothing degrading about it, except in the minds of people like yourself ! " cried Lesley.
" Well, perhaps degrading is not the right word : but you know what I mean, it's such menial work. " 278 LESLEY BECOMES A PARLOURMAID " Menial work ! Of course it's menial work, because that's how we're taught to look upon it. But there's no reason why it should be considered to be either menial or degrading ! After all, aren't the looking after a house and the working of a house the natural sphe...res for a woman ? It's the attitude of society towards housework which makes it degrading, just as it's the foolish, vulgar, snobbish wish for display which makes people ashamed of doing housework, and yet unashamed to hire other women to do what they should be doing themselves, instead of living beyond their incomes and leaving their children a heritage of debts instead of an education.
" I'm sick of this country, where women are looked down upon and despised, where they are jeered at because they happen to be the sex which predominates in the population ; where, if they take up any interest, no matter whether it is athleticism or the Suffrage, they are supposed to be moved by sex-disappointment.
