When he uses the pronoun <em>them</em>, he talks about women.

He says <em>"Pygmalion had seen them, spending their lives in wickedness, and, offended by the failings that nature gave the female heart, he lived as a bachelor, without a wife or partner for his bed".</em>

And that is why he decided to create his own partner, he carved a sculpture and he fell in love with it.

The speaker tells us that he would like to discuss the author's perspective. By clearly stating the objective in this way, the speaker can ensure that the conversation does not stray too far from the main issue that needs to be discussed.
