《女性心理的结构类型》——ToniWolff(17)

The fact that the problem of relationship may be a vital, but certainly not the only vital one for the male, enables him, especially nowadays, to experience under a positive aspect a third structural form of the female, namely the Amazon. Like the man, the woman has always lived in relationship not only to human objects but also to objective cultural values. Our time which offers plenty of scope in this respect is favourable for the Amazon who is independent and self-contained in the positive meaning of the term. She is independent of the .male, because her development is not based upon a psychological relationship to him. The conscious values represented by him are at the same time her own values. Her interest is directed towards objective achievements which she wants to accomplish herself. To be the wife of a distinguished man means nothing to her; she strives to win the laurels herself. The great sportswomen and travellers belong to this category, but also women who are less prominent in public life; e.g. those working scientifically, in the civil service or in business, the able secretaries who make themselves indispensable in their offices, those who do not feel sufficiently taken up by their families and so occupy themselves in a useful way with some objective interest or dedicate themselves to a task, who run a business enterprise (of which the husband is often an employee), or simply those who are " wearing the pants" at home and keep their household and family under military discipline.
