Do you agree with the suffragists or anti-suffragists?

“The arguments echoed those that had been made for decades: the pro-suffragists insisted women’s vote would improve the lives of women and children and fulfill the American promise of self-government; the anti-suffragists warned that it would lead to open warfare between men and women, destroying families across the country. While the debates were not unusual, the setting was: the Woman’s University Club. All the attendees – and debaters – were women, including the ones arguing against women’s suffrage.” -

I agree with the anti-suffragists. I mean, it already has led to warfare between men and women and the destruction of the family in our country.

I agree with anti suffragists. Women never wanted the right to vote to participate in society. They were only interested in what benefitted women.


Since women are largely emotional reasoners is it wise they have the right to vote and hold office? Just what we need. Emotional reasoning where objective thought is required.
