Quote #10
And you ladies who are married, do not scorn being subject to your husbands, for sometimes it is not the best thing for a creature to be independent. (3.19.2)
Despite all of her arguments for women's strength and independence, Christine de Pizan says at the end of her book that married women should obey their husbands and be humble. It's kind of sad, considering that it doesn't match up with a lot of stuff de Pizan has said earlier in this book.
