Defoe, Daniel
The Fortunes and Misfortunes of the Famous Moll Flanders
Abstract: On the other Hand, as the Market run very Unhappily on the Mens side, I found the Women had lost the Privilege of saying No. that it was a Favour now for a Woman to have THE QUESTION ask'd, and if any young Lady had so much Arrogance as to Counterfeit a Negative, she never had the Opportunity given her of denying twice; much less of Recovering that false Step, and accepting what she had but seem'd to decline: The Men had such Choice every where, that the Case of the Women was very unhappy; for they seem'd to Plie at every Door, and if the Man was by great Chance refus'd at one House, he was sure to be receiv'd at the next.
