The inequality between husband and wife, in his opinion, lay in the fact that the infidelity of a wife and that of a husband were unequally punished both by law and by public opinion.
L’ineguaglianza dei coniugi, secondo lui, consisteva nel fatto che l’infedeltà della moglie e l’infedeltà del marito erano punite in modo ineguale e dalla legge e dall’opinione pubblica.
