I think what Dovina is trying to tell us is that women have to be stupider than men to survive in the slow-paced world of embroidery and cleaning. Can you imagine what the world would come to if such menial tasks fell to the men? Men, who are used to living life on the edge, used to making split second decisions under enormous pressure, used to pushing the human body to its physical limits, and beyond? By God sir, we'd all be killed! I'll never forget the day my grandfather offered to help Mrs Bloomsbury with her embroidery, and lost a leg through boredom.
