Summary

This quote emphasizes the need for equal rights and treatment for both men and women. It argues that just as the rights of men are open to discussion and explanation, so too should the rights of women be subject to the same scrutiny and examination. By applying the same reasoning and standards to both genders, it calls for a fair and equal evaluation of the rights of women and acknowledges that they should not be deprived of this examination merely because of their gender.
