5 Anti-Suffrage Pamphlet (c.1910) “Housewives! – You do not need a ballot to clean out your sink spout. A handful of potash and some boiling water is quicker and cheaper… – Why vote for pure food laws, when your husband does that, while you can purify your Ice-box with saleratus water?” “Vote NO on Woman Suffrage – BECAUSE 90% of the women either do not want it, or do not care. – BECAUSE it means competition of women with men instead of co-operation. – BECAUSE 80% of the women eligible to vote are married and can only double or annul their husband’s votes… – BECAUSE in some States more voting women than voting men will place the Government under petticoat rule. – BECAUSE it is unwise to risk the good we already have for the evil which may occur. “

6 Alice Miller: Why We Don't Want Men to Vote (1915) “Why We Don't Want Men to Vote – Because man's place is in the army. – Because no really manly man wants to settle any question otherwise than by fighting about it. – Because if men should adopt peaceable methods women will no longer look up to them. – Because men will lose their charm if they step out of their natural sphere and interest themselves in other matters than feats of arms, uniforms, and drums. – Because men are too emotional to vote. Their conduct at baseball games and political conventions shows this, while their innate tendency to appeal to force renders them unfit for government.”

9 Women's Voting Rights Possibly the biggest change in the political landscape of the 20th century has been the enfranchisement of women. When the century began, only one small country (New Zealand) allowed women to vote, but now, only one small country (Kuwait) does not allow women to vote.

ESSENTIAL QUESTION (JAM) To what extent did economic and political developments as well as the assumptions about the nature of women affect the position of American women during the period ?
