Jasper County Democrat, Volume 13, Number 54, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 15 October 1910 — Roosevelt the “Feminine.” [ARTICLE]
Roosevelt the “Feminine.”
It has just* been discovered by Duffield Osborne.that Mr. Roosevelt “is a typical embodiment ot the feminine in man.” Mr. Osborne announces the discovery in the Forum qnd ingeniously upholds it. a woman’s horizon, we are told, is not less distant than a man's, but when she gazes at it she “holds up her hands like blinders and sees only the small segment that is straight ahead instead of allowing her eyes to sweep around the circumference.” It has been supposed that Mr. Roosevelt in the course of his seven years in the White House surveyed nearly all the known subjects surveyable by the human mind, but Mr. Osborne nevertheless finds that "his is pre-eminently a mind that sees one thing at a rime, or, in other words, works by intuition pure and simple.” Therefore is he a feminine type.
