Before women could vote, many argued they were too emotional or that their role was only in the home. Opponents claimed women did not need to vote as their husbands could influence elections. Some MPs argued women would wear large hats that obstructed views or were too impressionable. However, many women wanted equal treatment and believed voting would help them gain more control over their lives and influence policies around issues like poverty they faced. Support for women's suffrage grew as more saw voting as a way to participate in class-based politics.

This document summarizes the arguments that were made against women having the right to vote in the early 20th century. Many argued that women were too emotional, that their role was to influence their husband's votes, and that as they did not serve in the military they should not make decisions about war. Some politicians specifically argued that women would wear large hats that would obstruct views, that they were too impressionable, and that men were already controlled enough by women. Not all men had the right to vote at this time either. Additionally, some women argued they had no interest in politics.Women and the vote - Changing attitudes to women

Women were gaining more legal rights and jobs in the late 19th century, playing a greater role in politics and campaigning for women's suffrage. World War 1 further changed attitudes as women took over jobs left by men fighting overseas, undermining the idea that women were not responsible. As women demonstrated their capabilities through work, politics, and supporting the war effort, and as more men gained the right to vote, it increased support for women to also gain suffrage. However, many working women who had long been part of the industrial revolution did not get the right to vote when it was first extended to women.Why did women want the vote?

Women wanted the right to vote for three main reasons: they believed in equality and not having the vote made them seem like less of a person; many women wanted more control over their own lives as some faced domestic abuse or abandonment by husbands; and women experienced major societal problems like poverty and believed having the vote would force the government to address their views and improve laws to help women and their families.Women and the vote - The Suffragettes

The Suffragettes were a women's rights group formed in 1903 led by Emmeline Pankhurst that used militant tactics like arson and bombing to campaign for women's right to vote. Their violent actions gained significant publicity and put pressure on the government. When Suffragettes were imprisoned, they went on hunger strikes which led to forced feedings, generating more sympathy for their cause. However, their violent tactics also alienated some supporters and politicians they needed to pass reforms. Women and the vote - Other countries' influence

Several countries that were part of the British Empire, including New Zealand, Australia, and some areas of Canada, granted women the right to vote before Britain did in 1918. British suffragettes were aware of and inspired by campaigns for women's suffrage in other countries. Emmeline Pankhurst traveled to the US to raise funds for the British suffrage movement, while Kate Shepherd of New Zealand met with British suffrage leaders to discuss campaign strategies. However, the influence of other countries on Britain's decision was limited, as many countries granted women's suffrage later, and Britain imposed age restrictions not seen elsewhere.Women and the vote - party advantage

For years, the Liberal party had rejected extending voting rights to women by opposing bills to grant wealthier women the right to vote and passing laws against women's suffrage protests. However, the Liberal-led government finally granted some women the right to vote in 1918, likely due to fears of losing votes to the Labour party, which supported women's suffrage, and because the new Prime Minister David Lloyd George was more receptive to reform as a New Liberal.Suffragettes

The document summarizes the history of the feminist movement through its three waves. The first wave from the 18th to early 20th century fought for women's right to vote. The second wave from the 1960s to 1980s battled for social, cultural, and gender equality. The third wave from the 1990s to today responds to the failures of previous waves and campaigns for greater women's political influence. It then focuses on the Suffragettes movement in the UK led by Emmeline Pankhurst that used militant tactics like vandalism and hunger strikes to fight for women's suffrage, or right to vote.The Suffragettes

The document summarizes the key events in the suffragette movement for women's right to vote. It provides a timeline from 1848 when the first women's rights convention was held in Seneca Falls, New York led by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott. It then discusses the formation of women's suffrage organizations in the US and UK in the late 1800s/early 1900s. During 1906-1914, the suffragette movement in the UK engaged in acts of vandalism, riots, and arrests. World War I led to differences in how the suffragette movement progressed in the US versus UK, with women in the UK supporting the war effort and those in the USWomen and the vote - The Suffragists

The National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies (the Suffragists), led by Millicent Fawcett, was established in 1897 to campaign peacefully for women's right to vote. They organized petitions, letter-writing campaigns, and marches to persuade MPs. They also supported the Labour Party and suspended their campaign during World War 1 to support the war effort. While their peaceful protests showed women could be responsible citizens, the rise of the more radical Suffragettes showed the limitations of the Suffragists' campaign as it had failed to achieve the vote by the 1900s despite decades of efforts by various women's suffrage groups.The Suffragists

The Suffragists were a pressure group formed in 1897 called the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies (NUWSS) led by Millicent Fawcett. They used peaceful protest methods like petitions, newspaper publications, and large processions to campaign for women's right to vote. Their membership grew from 13,000 in 1909 to over 100,000 by 1913 as they worked to gain support from politicians and political parties. While they had some successes in raising awareness, their peaceful tactics proved insufficient to change the law, and women did not gain the right to vote until after World War I.What was the impact on women's suffrage in 1920?

The women's suffrage movement began in 1848 at the Seneca Falls Convention, where Elizabeth Cady Stanton and others called for women's right to vote. Early success occurred in western states like Wyoming in 1869 and Utah in 1870, perhaps due to alliances with labor unions and temperance movements.
Two major suffrage organizations emerged: the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA), led by Carrie Chapman Catt, which took a more cooperative approach; and the militant National Woman's Party (NWP) that used hunger strikes to protest.

Women played a large role in influencing laws and policy even before gaining the right to vote through organizations advocating for issues like prison and slavery reform. After the Civil War, women's groups successfully campaigned for the prohibition of alcohol nationwide via a constitutional amendment. While women had little legal rights and were expected to marry and raise children, their moral authority and advocacy was able to effect significant change.

The movement eventually reunified under the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA) in the early 20th century. African American women joined the movement led by white women to ensure white suffragists would not win the right to vote and deny it to black women. The movement had both mainstream and more radical factions.

Past Feminism Vs. Today's Feminism
Since the creating of Adam and Eve, women and men have always been viewed and
treated differently; and that is not necessarily a positive thing. Especially when females were
viewed as fragile and less intelligent. Females that are victimized from these inequalities are
extremely unhappy. July 13, 1848 was the the first known date for the beginning of the women's
rights movement. Women from all over the time line had gotten together to fight for equality
with men. These ladies of the past had successfully gained all American women more
economical, social, and political rights. However, today's feminist are walking into unknown
waters. The only thing that today's feminist had done Successfully, was gaining American
women the right to be drafted into the military and be viewed as a man's equal. They fight
saying they speak for all women, but not every female agrees.
On July 13, 1848 Elizabeth Cady Stanton was invited to a tea party with four other
women. It was just a normal tea party on a hot summer day, until the conversation about
women's rights came up. Elizabeth Stanton had expressed her frustrations and listed many issue
that had justified her feelings. Some of what was listed on that day, were how women are
practically dead after marriage in the eye of their society, women had to follow laws that they did
not even have a saying in, and women were not allowed to participate in professions that fall
under the law or medical field. Stanton was upset and so were her fellow tea mates. They then
decided to get together and organize a future meeting with other females to take actions. Soon
after, Elizabeth Stanton and Susan B. Anthony created The National Women Suffrage
Association in 1869. But what really pushed for this, all women's group, was their prior failed
attempt of gaining suffrage through teaming up with former male slaves. They first teamed up in
hopes of when the former slaves gain the right to vote, so will women. But that was not the case
when the fifteenth amendment was passed. The fifteenth amendment had stated That no
American citizen will be denied the right to vote based on their race, class, or pass servitude.
No were in the fifteenth amendment does it say anything about women's rights to vote. Another
historical example of this prejudice was exemplified in 1908. A case had gone through the
supreme court in 1905; Lochner verses New York. The cause of this case was due to New York
wanted to restrict baker's weekly working hours to only 60. Outraged the bakers took it to the
supreme court pleading the fourteenth. The supreme court had ruled it unconstitutional and it
was not passed. However, a similar case in 1908 emerged. Muller versed Oregon, had involved
Oregon wanting to restrict women's hours to only 10 a day. When brought to the face of the

This presentation argues that commonly held truths can change over time as society's standards and ways of knowing evolve. Specifically, it discusses how the "truth" that women should not have the right to vote was disproven in the early 1900s as women advocated for suffrage and equality. Key figures like Emmeline Pankhurst fought strongly against the male-dominated views of their time and helped shift societal attitudes towards recognizing women's intelligence and capabilities beyond the home. Nowadays, women voting and working in a wide range of fields shows how beliefs about gender roles and women's place in society have transformed dramatically since the late 19th century.Essay 2-muted-and-genderlects

She cited that women make up half the population but only hold about a fifth of government positions. The document discusses how the Muted Group Theory, which argues that women are suppressed by men as the dominant group, helps explain this imbalance. It also references the Genderlects Theory that men and women communicate differently.

when the fifteenth amendment was passed. The fifteenth amendment had stated That no
American citizen will be denied the right to vote based on their race, class, or pass servitude.
No were in the fifteenth amendment does it say anything about women's rights to vote. Another
historical example of this prejudice was exemplified in 1908. A case had gone through the
supreme court in 1905; Lochner verses New York. The cause of this case was due to New York
wanted to restrict baker's weekly working hours to only 60. Outraged the bakers took it to the
supreme court pleading the fourteenth. The supreme court had ruled it unconstitutional and it
was not passed. However, a similar case in 1908 emerged. Muller versed Oregon, had involved
Oregon wanting to restrict women's hours to only 10 a day. When brought to the face of the

This presentation argues that commonly held truths can change over time as society's standards and ways of knowing evolve. Specifically, it discusses how the "truth" that women should not have the right to vote was disproven in the early 1900s as women advocated for suffrage and equality. Key figures like Emmeline Pankhurst fought strongly against the male-dominated views of their time and helped shift societal attitudes towards recognizing women's intelligence and capabilities beyond the home. Nowadays, women voting and working in a wide range of fields shows how beliefs about gender roles and women's place in society have transformed dramatically since the late 19th century.Essay 2-muted-and-genderlects

Sources A and B provide differing interpretations of the early growth of Protestantism in Scotland in the 1550s-1560s. Source A emphasizes that many Scots were dissatisfied with the Catholic Church and open to Protestant ideas due to works criticizing the Catholic Church. Source B stresses the impact of Protestant preachers like John Knox and the support of powerful lords and the passing of laws against Protestant literature.
Source C outlines the Second Book of Discipline's vision of an independent Kirk governed by presbyteries and assemblies rather than bishops or the Crown. It notes James VI's opposition to these plans in 1581, with Presbyterians believing the King should submit to the Kirk, while the King and nobility disagreedHigher Migration and Empire - reasons for emigrant scots' success

The document discusses reasons for the success of many emigrant Scots in building new lives in other parts of the British Empire from 1830-1939. It states that Scots often succeeded due to factors like their nationality, English language abilities, education levels, reputation for hard work, skills in demanded fields, establishment of businesses and communities, and support from the British government and other Scots abroad. However, not all emigrant Scots found success, as some faced problems like poverty, unemployment, and loneliness in their new homes.Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Education

The 1944 Education Act aimed to improve education access and outcomes in Britain. It raised the compulsory school leaving age to 15, providing all children a minimum of secondary education. At age 11, children took an exam that determined if they attended an academic-focused senior secondary school or trades-focused junior secondary school. However, the exam system was criticized for penalizing poorer students and determining children's futures too early. Labour also introduced new school buildings to replace those damaged in war and accommodate growing student populations, though secondary schools remained outdated in many areas.Recently uploaded (20)

Why did women not have the vote?
- 2. Social attitudes - 1 Before women gained the vote many people took the view that voting was not something women should be involved in. They argued that women were too effeminate for the rough world of politics. Others claimed that women were too emotional especially at certain times - to be given the vote.
- 3. Social attitudes - 2 Many also argued that there was no need for women to vote. If a woman had a husband then she could express her view by influencing his vote. There was no need for her to have this right too. Also as women did not fight in wars, some said they should not make decisions about them.
- 4. Real MP arguments against women in politics Women will wear big hats Rowland Hunt MP "There are disadvantages about having women in Parliament. I do not know what is going to be done about their hats. "How is a poor little man to get on with a couple of women wearing enormous hats in front of him?" Women are too impressionable Sir John Rees MP "Women are noted for the adoption of any new thing, and for the easy acceptance of other people's views. "Are those qualities which fit women to rule over the home and foreign affairs of a mighty empire?" Women already control men Sir James Grant MP "Men have the vote and the power at the present moment; I say for Heaven's sake let us keep it. "We are controlled and worried enough by women at the present time, and I have heard no reason why we should alter the present state of affairs."
- 5. Men and the vote It has also to be remembered that until 1918, more than one third of men did not have the vote either. Given the dominant role of men in society, many people took the view that it would not be acceptable for a woman to be able to vote whilst a man could not.
- 6. Female attitudes Many women were against the idea of voting and said they would not use it even if given the right. They believed politics was no place for a woman. Famously Queen Victoria was against a female franchise, arguing that women voting was a mad, wicked folly.
- 8. Belief in equality Women wanted the vote for the same reason as men they wanted to be treated as equals in society. If they did not have the vote, many women believed this made seem like less of a real person, and that voting would help change this.
- 9. Wanted more control over own lives Many women had to live within the control of their husbands, and some had to deal with problems such as domestic abuse. Others had been abandoned by husbands and were the head of their house. Gaining the vote would give them a feeling of power, and help to change these problems.
- 10. Wanted to influence government Women had to live with many of the major problems of the day, including extreme poverty. Some believed that if they had the vote this would force the government to listen to their views and brings in laws to improve the lives of them and their families.
- 11. Class identity Linked in with the desire to influence government was the growing belief in class politics. Many working class women saw their men getting involved in political activities such as trade unions and the Labour Party. They wanted to play a role too, and voting was one to do this.
