Women in statesmanship, managing territories, governing countries, even making war, have proved themselves equal to men--if not superior.
In India I have no doubt of that. Whenever they have had the opportunity, they have proved that they have as much ability as men, with this advantage--that they seldom degenerate. They keep to the moral standard, which is innate in their nature.
And thus as governors and rulers of their state, they prove--at least in India--far superior to men. John Stuart Mill mentions this fact.
