Woman Suffrage, The Counterfeit And The True

Woman Suffrage, The Counterfeit And The True: Reasons For Opposing Both is a book written by Frederick Augustus Maxse in 1877. The book is a critical analysis of the suffrage movement, particularly the demand for women’s right to vote. Maxse argues that both the counterfeit and the true versions of woman suffrage are detrimental to society. The counterfeit version, according to Maxse, is the demand for women’s right to vote without any consideration for their responsibilities as citizens. He argues that this version of suffrage is based on the idea that women are entitled to the same rights as men, without acknowledging the differences between the sexes. Maxse believes that this version of suffrage is dangerous because it undermines the traditional family structure and promotes selfish individualism.The true version of woman suffrage, on the other hand, is based on the recognition of women’s unique role in society. Maxse argues that women have a distinct role as mothers and caregivers, and that their influence is best exercised through the family unit. He believes that women should be involved in the political process, but not through the ballot box. Instead, he suggests that women should have a voice in public affairs through their influence on their husbands, brothers, and sons.Overall, Woman Suffrage, The Counterfeit And The True: Reasons For Opposing Both is a thought-provoking analysis of the suffrage movement in the late 19th century. Maxse’s arguments are rooted in the traditional values of his time, but his insights into the role of women in society are still relevant today. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of women’s rights and the suffrage movement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
