Let a woman show deference, not being a slave to her husband; let her show
she is ready to be guided, not coerced....Adam was deceived by Eve, not Eve
by Adam....it is right that he whom that woman induced to sin should assume
the role of guide lest he fall again through feminine instability.
-- St. Ambrose (340-397 CE) Letter 63 (396 CE)
