…showed last 75 words of 2063 total…are examples of the illusion that men are the superior ones of
Miguel Street. Only a shallow read could see that otherwise. When all is said and done
it is the women who carry the qualities of 'strength, vigor and boldness' while the men
have the qualities of 'gentleness, weakness, delicacy' although definitly not 'modesty'.
On Miguel Street, the only male quality the men have is the lack of modesty, the rest is
all illusion.
