“Hip Parade” collectible women’s pelvises. Really. A whole series of sexified plastic dolls, severed at the waist and thighs.

Buh?

    Learning, while at school, that the charge for the education of girls was the same as that for boys, and that, when they became teachers, women received only half as much as men for their services, the injustice of this distinction was so apparent.
