Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

That your Sex are Naturally Tyrannical is a Truth so thoroughly established as to admit of no dispute, but such of you as wish to be happy willingly give up the harsh title of Master for the more tender and endearing one of Friend. Why then, not put it out of the power of the vicious and the Lawless to use us with cruelty and indignity with impunity. Men of Sense in all Ages abhor those customs which treat us only as the vassals of your Sex. Regard us then as Beings placed by providence under your protection and in immitation of the Supreem Being make use of that power only for our happiness.

Explanation:

The passage shown above was spoken from Abigail Adams to John Adams, where she testifies that men are tyrannical in relation to women. This is a natural part of their personality. However, she says that just as the Americans revolted against a tyrannical king, women can rebel against their husbands and provoke a rebellion against the abuse caused by men.

She also says that the few men who overcome their tyranny within and treat women fairly can achieve happiness.
