"Behind all their personal vanity, women themselves always have an impersonal contempt for woman"

- Friedrich Nietzsche

About this Quote

The quote recommends that women have a fundamental sense of self-criticism as well as judgment towards their very own sex. Regardless of appearing to be self-centered and also focused on their own charm or look, females have a much deeper understanding of the flaws and also restrictions of their sex overall. Making use of the term "impersonal" suggests this contempt is not targeted at any kind of details woman, yet instead at the idea of womanhood itself.
