Question

Which lines in this excerpt from "Address on Woman's Rights" by Elizabeth Cady Stanton show that she believed only women can address the issues that affect them and so they should be given the right to vote?

Answer 1

The part/s in Elizabeth Cady Stanton's ''Address on Woman's Rights'' that show that she believed only women can address the issues that affect them and so they should be given the right to vote is: 

"Did I not believe that woman herself must do this work—for woman alone can understand the height and the depth, the length and the breadth of her own degradation and woe. 

Man cannot speak for us—because he has been educated to believe that we differ from him so materially, that he cannot judge of our thoughts, feelings and opinions by his own."
