women suffrage
In 1851 Susan B Anthony discovered a sort of liberating partnership they could forge. Anthony found that the temperance movements they confined themselves and did not expect an unequal rights. In 1869 Anthony and Stanton was distinct from equal rights movement. During the civil war Elizabeth Cady Stanton concentrated her efforts on abolishing slavery, afterward she was more out spoken in promoting women suffrage. In the 1860s, the feminist movement moved to New Zealand. Muller noted that men and women at that time didn’t have equal political and economic rights as was true in other countries. Women could exercise only limited power in the economic structure of the country. For example they aren’t allowed to vote in national elections. A small number of women gained suffrage in municipal elections in nelson. In 1910, Jeannette Rankin moved to Seattle, Washington, she entered the university of Washington. Any study Rankin planned on accomplishing there was soon waylaid by a new politic interest: the women suffrage movement. She became a full time activist for her genders right to vote, and she returned to her home state of Montana, she was impressed the legislature with a powerful speech in her favor of women suffrage.

At the same time, all sorts of reform groups were proliferating across the United States–temperance clubs, religious movements and moral-reform societies, anti-slavery organizations–and in many of these, women played a prominent role. Meanwhile, many American women were beginning to chafe against what historians have called the “Cult of True Womanhood”: that is, the idea that the only “true” woman was a pious, submissive wife and mother concerned exclusively with home and family. Put together, all of these
