Introduces gender bias while also fighting for the right to vote

Women were fighting for limited and restricted work hours for women and children. When child labor is ended it forces mothers to be responsible, at home, for their children. When women are restricted from the workplace, they are unable to make money for their family. These reforms were driven by middle class values and hurt lower class families and women. Also women were fighting for the right to vote, but reformers were taking away economic freedom for women.
