"The Evolution of a New Woman" centers around the idea of gaining suffrage for women. The author discusses how women are being highly sexualized and demeaned, and it is taking away from their well-being, and from their ability to even succeed in areas where women were desired to succeed at the time (i.e. if a woman is being oppressed and suppressed, she will likely not be as good as a wife or mother). The text also uses reminders from Irish, British, and American history of groups of people who were pushed to their limits, leading to war and rebellion. These acts as warnings to those who did not wish to grant women the right to vote.
