Read this excerpt from Susan B. Anthony's "Is it a Crime for a Citizen of the United States to Vote? " and complete the sentence

s that follow.
But is urged, the use of the masculine pronouns he, his and him, in all the constitutions and laws, is proof that only men were meant to be included in their provisions. If you insist on this version of the letter of the law, we shall insist that you be consistent, and accept the other horn of the dilemma, which would compel you to exempt women from taxation for the support of the government, and from penalties for the violation of laws. . . .

So long as any classes of men were denied their right to vote, the government made a show of consistency, by exempting them from taxation.

Susan B. Anthony offers two strong justifications for granting women the right to vote. She refutes the anti-suffragist claim that women should not be allowed to vote since all laws were written by men for men. Instead, she makes the case that since women are required to pay all taxes even if they are not mentioned in tax laws, all women should be given the right to vote.
