According to this quote, it is illogical to classify individuals as inherently good or bad. Instead, people should be categorized as either captivating or mundane.

By focusing on charm rather than simplistic judgments of "good" or "bad," this quote emphasizes the importance of personality traits and the impact they have on our interactions and perceptions of others.

I do not know who first invented the myth of sexual equality

I do not know who first invented the myth of sexual equality. But it is a myth willfully fostered and nourished by certain semi-scientists and other fiction writers. And it has done more, I suspect, to unsettle marital happiness than any other false doctrine of this myth-ridden age.

More time and investment is involved to go deep but a gusher will pay off.
