No Benefit to Fair Sex Says Thomas Nelson Page
Thomas Nelson Page argues that while the broader woman movement has benefited lower and some upper class women by expanding livelihoods and provoking thought, he opposes full female suffrage. He favors limited suffrage in youth related matters and governmental roles, while preserving women’s traditional influence and warning that enfranchisement could degrade their status. He notes English and American movements, cites Mary Walker, and stresses moral considerations.
