A woman should be an illusion.
Meaning of the quote
This quote suggests that women should not be seen as real, ordinary people, but rather as mysterious and captivating figures. The author seems to believe that women should present an idealized, fantasy-like image to the world, rather than showing their true, authentic selves. This view reflects outdated and harmful stereotypes about women, and does not align with the idea that all people should be treated with equal respect and dignity.
