“…The solution is to adopt a synthetic approach, avoiding both absolute deductivism and pure empiricism. Mill thus develops his analysis based on inductive logic grounded in experience: the principal attributes of feminine nature are highlighted by deducing from observed behaviors the causalities allowing a common nature to be assumed (Ring 1985, p. 33). From there, as was mentioned above, Mill concludes that women generally have a “capacity for practice,” that they have a “sensibility to the present” and a “quickness of observation,” are “apt to build over-hasty generalizations upon [their] own observation” (1869a, p. 306), and have “a rapid and correct insight into present fact” (1869a, p. 305).…”
