Question 5 of 19 • SVLC ENGLISH 11A (15120)

Which excerpt from "Ain't I a Woman?" best refutes the anti-suffragist idea that women were too fragile to handle the right to vote?

Answer

Then that little man in black there, he says women can’t have as much rights as men, ’cause Christ wasn’t a woman!

That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere.

Well, children, where there is so much racket there must be something out of kilter.
