Never was it given to mortal man - To lie so boldly as we women can

Alexander Pope, a renowned poet of the 18th century, was known for his satirical and witty verses that often critiqued society and human nature. One of his most famous works, "The Rape of the Lock," is a mock-epic poem that satirizes the frivolous nature of high society in his time. In this context, the line "Never was it given to mortal man - To lie so boldly as we women can" can be seen as a reflection of Pope's views on gender roles and societal expectations.
