OSCAR WILDE on WOMEN
I don`t believe in women who think too much.Women should think in moderation, as they should do all things in moderation.
No woman is a genius. Women are a decorative sex. They never have anything to say, but they say it charmingly.
No woman should have a memory. Memory in a woman is the beginnning of dowdiness.
Plain women are always jealous of their husbands, beautiful women never are; they have no time, they are always occupied in being jealous of other people`s husbands.

Well, with Oscar's leanings to his own sex, he would not have a very high opinion of women but remember, it was also the Victorian era and women were thought of generally in this way. Oscar was just voicing what others thought.
Very interesting about the cats and dogs. Like learning things like this xxx
