Support from Other Nations Women achieved the right to vote in – New Zealand (1893) – Australia (1902)

In Oregon, women gained the right to vote in On the whole, western states and territories were more favorable to women's suffrage than eastern ones.

Anti-Women’s Suffrage A common argument among those opposed to suffrage was that men and women are fundamentally different and that society suffers when either sex tries to perform the duties of the other. Anti-suffragists often depicted suffragists as women wanting to be men and questioned the manliness of the men who supported suffrage.

Structured Academic Controversy Students will work in pairs examining primary sources to explain the reasons for and against woman’s suffrage. Students will use primary sources and arguments to write a letter in support of or against this controversial issue. Letters must be written from perspective of people from the early 1900’s.
