The Ladies keeps up a running argument with the (male-run) newspapers of the day, repeatedly attacking opinions expressed or implied in The Chronicle, the Morning Advertiser, the Globe and most especially the Saturday Review, among others. Mostly the ladies take offense at claims for women's inferiority, attacks on the suffrage movement, and satirical attacks on women. The Ladies' favorite weapon: the witty zinger, like the jab at the Morning Chronicle above.
