Yet the answer seems to us to be simple and entirely self-evident. Women want what all sentient human beings want. They want to develop their own talents and put them to good use, to earn and control their own money so they can be truly independent and make free choices. They want to gain status and respect as they prove to be worth of it. To love and to be loved as free and equal adults, to be allowed their human flaws and foibles and not to be unfairly judged for them, and to be forgiven when they fail, behave badly or have trouble coping. To be the subject and not the object. They want, in short, what men want.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Jane Caro" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/jane-caro/there-is-an-old-question-rarely-voiced-these-days-but-nevertheless/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/e62/jane-caro-32855_empowerment_there-is-an-old-question-rarely-voiced-t_1726642.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/e62/jane-caro-32855_empowerment_there-is-an-old-question-rarely-voiced-t_1726642.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/e62/jane-caro-32855_empowerment_there-is-an-old-question-rarely-voiced-t_1726642.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“There is an old question, rarely voiced these days, but nevertheless running as an undercurrent beneath the…” — Jane Caro", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "CollectionPage", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/choices-want/jane-caro/#webpage", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/choices-want/jane-caro/", "name": "Choices Want Quotes by Jane Caro", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#website" }, "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/choices-want/jane-caro/#itemlist" }, "primaryImageOfPage": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/e62/jane-caro-32855_empowerment_there-is-an-old-question-rarely-voiced-t_1726642.jpg" }, "description": "1 Choices Want quotes by Jane Caro.
