Clara at the Door with a Revolver Quotes

“The National Council of Women in Canada was appalled by these judicial attitudes. It pointed out, before and after the Seduction Act, that "false charges of this kind ae of very rare occurrence." In fact, the obverse was true. It was almost impossible to get a woman to press charges of seduction or rape because her sexual background would then be put under scrutiny.”
