Answer

Women shared the burden of supporting the nation.
It would be hypocritical to deny women the right to vote.

Answer 1

The views of Woodrow Wilson on the 19th Amendment, which guaranteed women the right to vote, can be summed up in this quote, taken from his address to Congress regarding the amendement in 1918:

“We have made partners of the women in this war… Shall we admit them only to a partnership of suffering and sacrifice and toil and not to a partnership of privilege and right?”

This indicates that women shared the burden of supporting the nation, and therefore it would be hypocritical to deny women the right to vote. This means that women deserve the right to participate in the electoral process. It also implies that society does ask women to uphold the same responsibilities as men, since women participated and sacrificed in the war.
