What, is this taken directly from the 19th century or is it earlier?

I'm not sure who you're making out to be second-class citizens, males, females, or the infirm. They can't all be second-class. I'm not easily confused, but you've accomplished as much in me.

I'm glad others have spoken from my perspective in my stead.
