Title
Votes for Women: For and Against
Identifier
RAD180
Description
The case for votes for women is put by a woman. She points out that women want the vote for the same reasons as men did. It is ridiculous that a female landowner cannot vote whilst her male servant can. Women pay rates and income tax but do not have equal status with men.
Leatham disagrees with each of the given arguments. In particular, he believes that women should not govern men. In this, he displays a typically socialist viewpoint. He feels that women would be better in local rather than parliamentary politics.
