Although many colonial women were Patriots, the Declaration of Independence did not address their rights. Abigail Adams (wife of

delegate John Adams) tried to influence her husband to include women's rights in the Declaration. Read her quote then respond to the question. "Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands...If particular care and attention is not paid to the Ladies we are and will not hold ourselves bound by Laws in which we have no voice or Representation." --Abigail Adams (a letter to John Adams) How is Abigail Adams's argument similar to the colonists' protest over "taxation without representation"?
