Men are not to be told anything they might find too painful; the secret

them. ... Men must be allowed to play in the sandbox of their choice, as
happily as they can, without disturbance; otherwise they get cranky and won't
eath their dinners. There are all kinds of things that men are simply not
equipped to understand, so why expect it of them?

Geary is using G. E. Moore (a man)'s symbol, "ents" for 'entails".
Austin would say:
"Some like Witters, but Moore's MY man"

Try to think of a philosopheress for which it fits to say, "MY woman" --
and fail.

Signora granda, testa che massa
massa ne passa, che quasi schissa,
Dia dei sostegni de cese e palassi
Dia de le taje che su ne tien fissi
Dia de le onde che le ne fa grassi,
ne ingrassa de ogni grassia, Dia Venessia -
aàh Venessia aàh Venàssia aàh Venùsia
Andrea Zanzotto, Filò, (Sezione: Recitativo Veneziano)
