Description
'Terrible Result of the Higher Education of Women!', 1874. The beautiful young women go into dinner on the arms of the elderly professors, whilst the young men who would normally be squiring the girls in the usual prelude to courtship languish, redundant, against the wall. Punch often entertained its readers with its depictions of the lives of women. Fashion, sport and education were usually near the top of the list and this cartoon depicts education as being responsible for creating a nation of spinsters. From Punch, or the London Charivari, January 24, 1874. (Photo by The Cartoon Collector/Print Collector/Getty Images)
