The Man of It at Corner For Women
An essay on male vanity and gallantry in a crowded street car. It explores how men resist giving up a seat to women, preferring to stand and shoulder the social ritual as a sign of virtue, even stitching in a paper and gloved hand to feign restraint. The piece concludes that men are queer creatures who sacrifice comfort for pride.
