Plot A college professor writes a controversial book claiming that woman have a secret desire to be subjugated. A female journalist sets out to try and dig up information on him by enrolling in one of his classes. When her newspaper prints an article claiming that his theories suggest that women want to be "socked", he sues for $300,000. In order to get him to withdraw the action, the journalist tries to goad him into striking her when a photographer is secretly nearby, so he can be blackmailed. But the professor, who is engaged to a staid bluestocking, and the journalist, pursued romantically by her editor, begin to develop feelings towards each other.
