About this Quote

This quote by Victoria Woodhull talks to the lack of representation and power that ladies have actually had in government throughout history. Woodhull was an American suffragist and the very first lady to run for President of the United States in 1872.

This quote is a tip of the long battle for females's rights and the need for greater representation in government. It is also a call to action for females to decide and defend their rights and for a more equitable society. Woodhull's quote is a powerful reminder that females have actually been rejected the right to participate in government and that it is time for modification.
