Immanuel on Women

"A woman", says Kant, "does not have a deep mind but a beautiful mind. She has a mind for beauty to the extent that if she does not commit a crime it is not because she thinks it is wrong but because she thinks it is ugly."

See Kant is a feminist, albeit an unwitting one.

Thanks to Johannes F Lagerweij for the quote.
