LAD #11: Seneca Falls Declaration

Structured almost identically to the Declaration of Independence from the Revolution, this document lists women's grievances about men, similarly to how Americans listed their grievances about the king of Britain. These grievances include women not being able to vote, follow laws that women have had no say in, and being exempt from law as long as the immoral actions are in the presence of her husband. Afterwards, the women who wrote the document list their demands, stating that women should be treated equal to men, that the expectancy of behavior be equal among both genders, that women should have the right to vote, and that efforts to receive these benefits must be seen through by both men and women.
