Use details from the text to summarize Sojourner Truth's opinion about men thinking "women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere."

In the text "Ain't I a Woman?" Sojourner Truth presents her ideas on the subject of women's rights, as well as African American rights. She talks about some of the most commonly-held ideas at the time, and presents them as irrational or unfair.

In the second paragraph, Truth discusses the way men think of women. She presents the image of the "weak" woman who has to be helped constantly. Many men at the time believed that women were very weak, and therefore, needed to be helped into carriages, lifted over ditches and be placed at the best place all the time. However, she challenges this notion by talking about her difficult life. She has worked hard, performed physical labor, given birth to thirteen children and handled physical pain as well as a man. Therefore, she is in no way weak.

Truth achieves two goals with these statements. First, she highlights how false the arguments of "weakness" are, and how both men and women can be very strong. Second, she highlights the fact that white women are treated much better than black women due to the prevalent racist ideas of the time.
