Option: B) Women serve in government but are still underrepresented.
Explanation:
Women for the first time gained rights to vote because of the Suffrage Moment which fought for the right for women in the United States. After getting voting rights, women began serving in government but not treated as equal as men. Women remain underrepresented in offices (federal, state) which showed a gender gap in society. Even though women got what they wanted, the society preferred them to remain in households doing the chorus.
The correct answer is B) Women serve in government but are still underrepresented.
Even though women gain the right to vote thanks to the 19th Amendment (1920), they are still vastly underrepresented in Congress. To this day, a relatively small amount of women serve in the Senate and House of Representatives. This can be contributed to several different factors, depending on the historical time period.
When this amendment initially passed, women were still seen as people who were meant to stay home, take care of children, and complete other domestic chores. These stereotypes negatively impacted women who aspired for political careers, as some men would refuse to vote for a woman candidate.
South Carolina declared unfair taxes to be a cause of secession: "The people of the Southern States are not only taxed for the benefit of the Northern States, but after the taxes are collected, three-fourths (75%) of them are expended at the North (to subsidize Wall Street industries that elected Lincoln)."
