  This treatise challenges the reduction of woman to an involuntary breeding machine and household slave who was subject to man's pernicious despotism and of a male legislature who was no more inclined to consult the interests of women than the interests of bullocks were consulted in the police regulations that preceded and follow their slaughter . It is ironic that this indignant attack on unequal representation for women should not bear the name of its female co-author .
