Women Right To Vote Women\'s Right to Vote Written by: Lm4103082 After reading Francis Parkman\'s article, “Women Are Unfit to Vote”, I found myself both offended and annoyed. His arguments were not only shaky, but they were also illogical. He states that the family has been the political unit; consequently, the head of the family should be the political representative. He goes on by stating that women have shared imperfectly in the traditions and not in the practice of self-government. Lastly, he suggests women might vote that men should go off and fight in war. Not only are these statements wrong, but they are very much so offensive. Women are humans, too, and they should be treated how a man is treated. We are, after all, of an equal race, so why do we women not get the right to vote' In my opinion,this question cannot be answered logically. Many reasons can contradict Parkman’s statements included in his article, and I plan to do so. To start with, Parkman declares that “the family, and not the individual, has been the political unit, and the head of the family... has been the political representative of the rest.” He is saying that the men are the head of vote, women, right, men, head, family, should, war, woman, political, therefore, statement, send, self-government, practice, parkman’s, parkman, off, might, learn, husband, given, fight, article, , unit, representative, during, deny, being, been, become, adams, abigail, voting, very
