From woman, man is born; within woman, man is conceived; to woman he is engaged and married. Woman becomes his friend; through woman, the future generations come. When his woman dies, he seeks another woman; to woman he is bound. So why call her bad? From her, kings are born. From woman, woman is born; without woman, there would be no one at all.
Woman is generally so bad that the difference between a good and a bad woman scarcely exists.
I wasn't a bad person who needed to become good...I was DEAD and needed to be brought to life! (Ephesians 2:1-10)

A woman is not a whole woman without the experience of marriage. In the case of a bad marriage, you win if you lose.

People told me several times during my first campaign to hide my youth and the fact that I was a nontraditional candidate - a 29-year-old woman.

I grew up in Christianity. They preach a lot that you should get married and be a wife and be a virtuous woman and all of that. So I was so eager to do that, and I didn't really take the time I needed to grow into my own. And I ended up running into a really bad situation. I didn't even really date my ex-husband. We just kind of jumped into it.

I was reading Raymond Chandler very much with the feminist eye. In six of his seven novels, it's the woman who presents herself in a sexual way, who is the main bad person.

The woman that thou gavest me made me do it, Adam says to God.
