We will not speak of the innumerable instances in which wasteful and idle men live upon the earnings of industrious wives. Nor shall we speak of situations in which wives leave their husbands, and take with them the children, to perform the double duty of mother and father. And after doing so, they are then followed from place to place, and threatened to be robbed of their children. These wives are accused of depriving the so-called rights of a husband. The husbands, claiming their rights, plant themselves in their poor lodgings, frighten them into paying tribute by taking from them the children, and run these overtasked women into debt. Such instances add up by scores within my own memory. I have seen the husband who had stained himself by a long course of low vice, till his wife was wearied from her heroic forgiveness. His treachery made any effort to forgive him useless. To be able to provide bread for herself and her children, she had to be separate from his ill fame. I have known this kind of man to install himself in the chamber of a woman who loathed him and say she should never take food without his company. I have known these kinds of men to steal their children, whom they knew they had no means to maintain, take them into corrupt company, and to expose them to bodily danger, just to assert their power over their wives. And these women, who alone have borne the pangs of birth, and nourished their infancy, are denied equal rights to parent and protect them. I do believe that this mode of kidnapping—and it is frequent enough in all classes of society—will be by the next age viewed as it is by Heaven now. I believe that the man who avails himself of the shelter of men's laws to steal from a mother her own children, or claim any superior right in them, save that of superior virtue, will bear the stigma he deserves. Just like the man who steals grown men from their motherland, their hopes, and their homes.

Answer 1

She feels men abuse their power to control those without rights, such as women and enslaved persons.

Step-by-step explanation:

She mentions men who forces women to only eat when they present, steal children when they cannot feed them, expose them to danger, and assert superiority when they don't have the right. She believes that the women who painfully bore children are denied the rights to be a parent.
