Quote by James Buchan
To give money to a woman - and here I must speak as a man - is to deny her special quality, her irreplaceability, and reduce her unique amiability to a commodity. Money takes away her name, while transforming her lover into a nameless customer of a market of appetites.

Summary
This quote argues that giving money to a woman, especially from a male perspective, diminishes her inherent value and turns her into a transactional object. It suggests that money undermines her individuality and transforms intimate relationships into commercial interactions, robbing her of her identity. The quote highlights the unique qualities and significance a woman brings to a relationship, which cannot be equated or replaced with monetary transactions.
