Sex Appeal Parade Sparks Suffrage Debate in New York
In a New York interview Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge of the Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage rejects the idea that a parade for votes is a sex appeal tactic. She cites extreme dress and bare silhouettes as harmful, argues suffragists misrepresent women, and warns that fashion choices and provocative banners could provoke a backlash against the movement, urging higher morals and decorum from supporters.
