In 1875 the Supreme Court of Wisconsin in denying the petition of women
to practise before it said:
“It would be shocking to man's reverence for womanhood and faith in
woman … that woman should be permitted to mix professionally in all
the nastiness which finds its way into courts of justice.”
It then names thirteen subjects as unfit for the attention of
women-three of them are crimes committed against women.
