Every female child bom on this earth within recorded history has had to absorb one fact: she is a member of that half of the human race considered inferior to the male. From the moment of her birth she is marked off from her brother and receives the stamp of sub-standard. The circumstances of her arrival into this world, a long shadow falls across her, the shadow of the second sex. However, she struggles, however she succeeds, that shadow must touch some part of her and deform. Men, however, are distorted by virtue of the role set for their sex, because they belong to the dominant sex they have more room for manoeuvre, more ways in which to push their own individuality through the restrictions of that role. Whatever their handicaps, efforts to break out of the mould are considered at least respectable, if they necessarily rewarded. Women, on the other hand, are historically penalised. The same efforts and their rewards come only from remaining (and looking) as much the stereotype as possible. In a very general way, the female sex has been forced away, the main pull of evolution-diversity, and pushed into `. The loss, so far, to humanity as a , is incalculable.
