Members of the Anti-Sixteenth Amendment Society believed that giving women the vote would hurt the family structure.[4] In addition, they believed that women had enough duties at the home and they did not want to "bear other and heavier burdens."
These are the arguments they came up with. Some of them might seem silly to you, but they made a lot of sense to people at the time:
- “Women and men have ‘separate spheres’.”
- “Most women do not want the vote.”
- “Women’s role is in local affairs.”
- “Women are already represented by their husbands.”
- “It is dangerous to change a system that works.”
- “Women do not fight to defend their country.”
There were of course many people who opposed the idea of women’s suffrage. They were known as the ‘Antis’. Here are some of the reasons they gave:
1. Women would be corrupted by politics and chivalry would die out
2. If women became involved in politics, they would stop marrying, having children, and the human race would die out
3. Women were emotional creatures, and incapable of making a sound political decision.
Women now wants the benefit of both system and men have to be stupid or cucks to put up with that.
