Women's right to vote


The reasons for women being allowed to vote are spread out from simple humanity to strategy. The more humane arguments are the natural responses of, "The people are abide by these laws should be able to have a right in making them," and "Men and women should be treated equal as we come from the same Creator," etc. Basically it would be the moral, or "right", thing to do for women. In my opinion, these radical arguments are put forth side-by-side with the culture and society changes going on around the US during the 1900s to the 1920s. The infamous women who supported these reasonings were Ida B. Wells and Lucy Stone. The people who are making these humanitarian pros for woman votes are people who long believed in the change and ethical changes happening in the US.


The more strategical arguments are how "Women would be educated and experience from voting, and not be vain within society," and "Equal suffrage would increase educated votes ratio and the number of native-born voters," and "It would increase women influence on society," and "It provides maxim in war," etc. These arguments are supported by people who are thinking of the changing US as an opportunity for US advantage as a whole. Mary C. C. Bradford, the Alice Paul, and Susan B. Anthony were supporters of these arguments. Women being able to vote attracted a spectrum of rationalizes for woman rights in society and the whole US.
