- noun
- femia

EN Then as to the females, it would, I think, with humble submission be a loss to the public, because they soon would become breeders themselves; and besides, it is not improbable that some scrupulous people might be apt to censure such a practice (although indeed very unjustly), as a little bordering upon cruelty; which, I confess, hath always been with me the strongest objection against any project, however so well intended.
GL En canto ás femias, creo con humilde opinión que serían unha perda para o Estado, porque axiña se converterían en criadoras e ademais, é probable que algunha xente escrupulosa estea disposta a censurar esa práctica (aínda que, de feito, moi inxustamente) porque se aproxima un pouco á crueldade, o que confeso sempre foi para min a máis forte obxección contra calquera proxecto, por moi ben intencionado que el sexa.
