I brought him to that state of ruffled vanity and fretful self-assertion in which it is easiest to work on a man's feelings in which a man's own wounded pride makes the best pitfall to catch him in. I brought him, I say, to that state, and then she stepped in and profited by what I had done.

Men have nothing at all similar to this. Nature has given to women this special enjoyment to compensate for the pains they have to undergo.
