A View of How Elizabeth Cady Stanton Was Instrumental In Pushing Forward the Right for Women to Vote

A View of How Elizabeth Cady Stanton Was Instrumental In Pushing Forward the Right for Women to Vote Women’s rights movement is the most important event that happens a long time ago since the day all men take over in every area such as decisions, jobs, the stands in society, etc. Many activists have stood up for their own rights such as the women’s rightssuch as Susan B. Anthony, Alice Paul, Lucy Stone, and Ida B. Wells. Elizabeth Cady Stanton is one of those who stand up for the war of women’s rights. Shewrites a draft, â€Å"Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions, Seneca Falls Convention, 1848,† to providethe limitations women face during that time; she feels women deserve those rights. Afterwards, the women’s rights have been approved, but many wrongs have yet to be addressed since the 19th Century such as denying women the right to vote, denying women the right to work in profitable employment by monopolizing jobs and banning women from working in theology, medicine, and law, and creating and perpetuatinga system of dependency that causes wo men to lose self-respect and confidence different moral codes for both men and women in her arguments. Elizabeth Cady Stanton points out how men and society reject women to vote. She writes a list of many wrongs to women in the Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions, Seneca Falls Convention, 1848, which takes place in New York, on Nolo website with the article, â€Å"He has never permitted her to exercise her inalienable right to the elective franchise.†Elizabeth Cady Stanton is one of the very first activists for the women’s rights. She involves in the women’s rights movement from 1815 to 1902. She writes the Declaration of Sentiment and Resolutions, Seneca Falls Convention, 1848, as a draft to the Government seeking approval to amend the United States of America Constitution. No one sees anything wrong with a female stands up and speaks out loud about her thoughts or vote and elect whomever they want for any of the elections. Denying women the right to work in profitable employment by monopolizing jobs and banning women from working in theology, medicine and law is the second point in the abuse lists that Elizabeth Cady Stanton throws out for proving the most significant defections such as this following statement in her Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions, Seneca Falls Convention, 1848, â€Å"He has monopolized nearly all the profitable employments, and from those she is permitted to follow, she receives but a scanty remuneration. He closes against her all the avenues to wealth and distinction, which he considers most honorable to himself. As a teacher of theology, medicine, or law, she is not known.†Historically, women’s roles include maintaining the entire household, but in modern day times, women deserve the right to work as men because they born equally and work with their strongest power as men. Women find the right rights to earn or receive and gain back everything as men in wor k places. Base on an article of Victor Tembo in Linked in website, he says: â€Å"The EU has attempted to provide leadership on issues of Gender by making gender equality as a primary objective in the various projects. Sadly, in 2012, only 28 percent of new EU project proposals had gender as a primary or significant objective, far below the target of 80 percent for 2015. Luckily however, consensus is growing around the need to demonstrate more sturdy leadership to ensure that gender equality and women’s empowerment stay visible and high on the agenda.† He also states out: â€Å"I have a vision that one day, the world especially in the developing countries, will look at women as significant contributors to the GDP of a country and to the well being of not just their families but society as a whole. I have a vision that within 5 years from today, there shall be a significant improvement in the numbers of women leaders at various levels (a situation which can be guarante ed if the rights of women are properly institutionalized within policies of organizations). My belief is that the attitudes and expectations surrounding gender roles are typically based not on any inherent or natural gender differences, but on stereotypes, or overgeneralizing about the attitudes, traits, or behavior patterns of women or men. Its admirable how the western countries have developed in all fields of life. Their education system, their health care system, information technology etc., are in the highest rankings. In western countries men and women are working shoulder to shoulder in the same pace and both are contributing and playing their parts equally in the developmental processes. They are given basic education as well as fundamental and higher education without any restrictions from the society. Early pregnancies or early marriages that are prevalent in Africa and have stopped many African girls becoming relevant in society are unheard of. That is why the West is tha t much developed. They are educating and encouraging both the sexes equally without discriminating or neglect of the girl child. In this way,there is competition and where there is competition there is invention and invention leads to massive development in one way or another.† The last point that Elizabeth Cady Stanton mentions is about creating and perpetuatinga system of dependency that causes women to lose self-respect and confidence different moral codes for both men and women in her Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions, Seneca Falls Convention, 1848. Therefore, these next following statements speak up the full meanings of how the society and men treat women back in the days in every area: â€Å"He has created a false public sentiment by giving to the world a different code of morals for men and women, by which moral delinquencies which exclude women from society are not only tolerated but deemed of little account in man.† And, â€Å"He has endeavored, in every way that he could, to destroy her confidence in her own powers, to lessen her self-respect, and to make her willing to lead a dependent and abject life.† If men can do it, then women can do it, too. He, or no one needs to calculate or spend time to do any separations or compar isons in every situation between men and women. According to the Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions, Seneca Falls Conventions, 1848 of Elizabeth Cady Stanton writes as a draft in New York for fighting for the women’s right movement to get the approval from the United States of America Constitution for being one of the amendments. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony are the founders of the Women’s Loyal National League in 1863 and they initiate the American Equal Rights Association in 1866, which campaign the rights for women and African Americans. They post the newspapers about the Women Suffrage and fight for them in years after that. Elizabeth Cady Stanton talks about how women get treated by men and society as non-human with no voices and choices since 1800s to the 19th Century. It seems women do not deserve anything like that. Why does the society make women live in no voices, choices and stay under men’s? Women are born equally as men. So, they deserve everything as men do. That means, they deserve the rights to vote, to speak, to work, to do anything they want as men, even for awhile much has changed for women since the 19th Century, many wrongs have yet to be addressed such as such asdenying women the right to vote, denying women the right to work in profitable employment by monopolizing jobs and banning women from working in theology, medicine, and law, and creating and perpetuatinga system of dependency that causes women to lose self-respect and confidence different moral codes for both men and women in her Sentiments to the Government and the world out there to stay on the right side.
