I'm writing a story and there's a character who's a Latin professor who's giving a lecture on feminist theory vis-a-vis the Classics. I want her to say a Latin phrase, then translate it for the class as: "Willpower is not gender specific." Her point is, Men are not inherently more willful (or formidable) than Women; that "willpower" is not the province of Men alone.
Raphillon helped me with something similar last week. Any takers?
Vis voluntatis non propter sexem
Help with English into Latin Translation
That sounds great. Thanks so much!
Correction:
That should be SEXUM, not SEXEM.
(Mea culpa...)
