The Declaration of Sentiments was published by Elizabeth Cady Stanton in her book, A History of Woman Suffrage. Elizabeth Cady was an American activist involved in the movement to abolish slavery. I admire Stanton for standing up for what she believed in. She demanded that the rights of women be respected and acknownledged in society. This is similar to the Declaration of Independence because, it states that we as a people should not be separated. Everyone (including women and blacks) should be entitled to the laws of nature and of God. In 1848 conventions were held for women's rights. Stanton based her agrument on the Declaration of Sentiments, which defined the purpose of the meeting. Stanton stated that all men AND women were created equal, and therefore should be treated as such. She states that women had natural rights and should be able to exercise them. The Senfalls convention was not only for women's rights, but for anti-slavery. I admire Mott, Stanton, Wright, Mary Ann McClintock, and Jane Hunt for what they did for all all women and for the movement of anti-slavery. They convinced other women to stand up for themselves and fight for their rights. If it weren't for these women standing up for our rights, who would have been the first to do so? Would we still be fighting for the rights of women today?
Elizabeth Cady Stanton display great courage to stand up for women's right to vote. This article really show the power that women does have. Elizabeth was great to stand up and fight, but many women didn't during that time. I think that this article can work both ways,it can show the weakness of women not to fight together and the strenght to fight back, and continue fighting.
The purpose of the Seneca convention was to bring up and discuss the social, civil, and religous conditions and rights for women. Women such as Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucretia Mott, Martha C. Wright, Mary Ann McClintock, and Jane Hunt formed a get-toegther with hopes of takeing steps toward getting equality for women. This get-together was bases upon the Declaration of Sentiments (which was drawn up by Stanton) and eleven resolutions (also drawn up by stanton) which argued that women had a natural right to equality in all spheres. This convention was definatley a great start in the womens' right moevement. It had all the right ideas and started to make an impression on many minds about how women should be equal to men as the consitution had so clearly stated. Although the resolutions that the ladies had came up with started to become recognized, women suffrage was still far off. Women suffrage was probaby the hardest equality for women to reach at the time.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton msdae everybody started to think about women's suffrage. When Lucretia Mott and herself tried for a seat at the World Anti- Slavery convention because they were female she decideed to fight back. In 1948, she wrote the Declaration of Sentaments, using the Declaration of Independence as guide, to list her grivences of men toward women. She advocated for the right for women to vote and it took 75 years for it to happen. If it wasn't for people like her women wouldn't be able to vote today. Stanton was criticized a lot by the press but she still fought on. It must have taken a lot of heart to accomplish all that she did.
Eliazabeth Cady Stanton wrote the Declaration of Sentiments in her book, "A History of Woman Suffrage". It was a very strong book. It was for equals rights for women. It was a very brave step seeing that women had basically no rights at that time. She started something that would inspire women to fight for their rights. They fought for years and years and finally they are equal to everybody else. If it weren't for women like her women probably still wouldn't have rights.
The Declaration of Sentiments is similar to the declaration of independents becuase it targets a group as the enemy. Both documents are set up similarily and both documents are biased in one way or another (--natives and foreigners in the Declaration of Sentiments and generally ignore womens rights in the Declaration of Independence) Also the lines about all men and women created equally ...life, liberty, and justice were also similar. Also both documents were written by upper, middle class. The diffrences are that this was not formed as guidelines for a new country. Also The d.o.i was written for men, but the d.o.s. was written for women. The declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Station and signed by 68 women and 32 men. The purpose of the Seneca Falls Convention was to organize the people and to promote support for the Declaration of Sentiments and to record and educate others on the women's grivences.
I'm surprised that there's at least one women back then that has the gut to stand up and fight for the womans right. There should've been more than that though. I'm also surprised that Jane Hunt, Mott, Stanton, Wright and Mary Ann McClintock encouraged the women to stand up for themselves. I mean like there's not that many men back then that would care for woman like that. They would usually only care for the men's right, not the woman's right.
The Declaration of Sentiments is very similar to the Declaration of Independence. It starts by saying that they want to make social change, and then it talks about all the abuses and injustices men have imposed on women. This follows the same format as the Declaration of Independence, except that it says how women are treated unfairly by men instead of how Americans were treated unfairly by the British. The Declaration of Sentiments even takes most of the text of its first two paragraphs right from the Declaration of Independence because it wants to make almost exactly the same point. After it lists in detail all the rights that women are denied (the list has as many entries as the Declaration of Independence had), the document ends by saying that women deserve equal rights as citizens of America. The writers of the Declaration of Sentiments obviously used the Declaration of Independence as a guide so they could show that they were being oppressed in the same way that Americans had been oppressed before the American Revolution.
The document was signed by 100 men and women from around Seneca Falls, New York. Many of the people at the convention were Quakers, who already believed in some equality for women. There were also many abolitionists in the group.
The purpose of the Seneca Falls convention was to decide an agenda for the women's rights movement. It wasn't all about suffrage; some people weren't in favor of that. The planners wanted "to discuss the social, civil, and religious condition and rights of woman" and talk about women's rights (and how they were deprived of them) in general, but not necessarily start changing things immediately.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and was signed by sixty-eight women and thirty-two men. It appears to be directly modeled after the declaration of independence, except for the fact that it is declaring equality for women instead of freedom from Britain. The Seneca Falls Convention took place in order to write the declaration of sentiments and to help give the rights described in it to women.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written to protect women's rights. It insured that women were as equal to men, allowing them life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The document allowed women to hold property, make decisions in the society, and hold high positions. Unlike the Declaration of Independence, which only allowed white males to have rights, it allowed women and their ideas to be heard, shaping the United States of America.
The Seneca Falls Convention was set up by Elizabeth Cady Stanton. She organized and lead many women protesting for their rights. It was the first act of movement for women's rights.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott came up with The Declaration of Sentiments. It is similar to the Declaration of Independence because it starts off by saying that "all men and women are created equal". This document basically sheds light on how women were treated harshly by men. The men didn't let the women vote, they took their hard earned money, and the men made them respect them. I don't think I could have survived back then because if it's not my mother, my father or my grannies, I don't bow down to anybody, especially men. If they want respect from me, they have to give respect. Also, the article said that if a man and a woman got a divorce, the children automatically go to the husband. I would have gotten killed or thrown in jail because I would never let anyone take my children away from me.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written using the Declaration of Independence as a base. It was written to protect women's rights, ensuring them that they were men's equals. Thus that means that they can hold property and hold governmental positions which in the past, only the men could do it.
The Declaration of Sentiments and the Declaration of Independence are both similar in that they both preserved the right of a people. The Declaration of Independence was written to uphold men's rights while the Sentiments was for women directly.
the Seneca convention was all about trying to get get womens rights. Elizabeth cady stanton was the women that stood up for all of the other women and she stood up for what she had believed in. she wrote the decleration of sentiments and she put them in her book. all throught out 1848 there where conventions for womens right and at those conventions the decleration was the main subject. then there was the convention of senfalls and it was also about womens right but anti-slaveryas well.
The Declaration of Sentiments is nearly the exact same as the Declaration of Independence. The women behind the Declaration want to seem as righteous as the people behind the Declaration of Independence. Elizabeth Stanton wrote the Declaration of Sentiments. A group of men and women signed it.
The purpose of the Seneca Falls Convention was to forward the rights of women. It was to make people aware of the movement and to decide what to do from there.
These two documents are similiar in their basic outline. The first two paragraphs are explanations of how all people deserve rights and are written using similiar wording. The entire second paragraph is virtually the same barring the insertion of women and is not based on secession. The last paragraphs of both are grievences and are written in a similiar fashion, i.e. "He has never permitted her to exercise her inalienable right to the elective franchise" and "He has refuted his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good." The declaration of Sentiments was made in 1848 by 68 women and 32 men. The author was also the organizer of the Seneca Falls convention, Elizabeth Cady Stanton. This meeting was one of the first to protest for woman's rights.
The Declaration of Sentiments was presented by Elizabeth Cady. This document was signed by 68 women and 32 men. Some similarities in the documents was tht they both talk about the right of life, liberty and justice. One difference in the documents is that the declaration of indipendence was written for men and the declaration of sentiments was for women. This document was also about how women are deprived of some rights that are given to other people. Also, it disscusses the difefrences between married women and single women and how they lose their rights when their married, and even when they're single they are still excluded from society.
The Seneca Convetion was about womens rights. It helped boost the information about what the women wanted. The document looks like it was written following the guidelines of the decleration of independence.
The Declaration of Sentiments is similar to the Declaration of Independence because it used the Declaration of Independence as a model. It stressed equality and the inalienable rights of mankind, such as life, liberty, and property. The Declaration of Sentiment is different from the Declaration of Independence, however, by including the rights of women and stating that women were equal to men. Instead of writing a list of grievance against the king, the Declaration of Sentiments wrote a list of grievance against men’s treatment of women. The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Staton, and was signed by 68 women and 32 men. The Senecca Falls Convention was held to bring forth ideas of how to increase support of women’s suffrage and to discuss the rights of woman and how they would achieve those rights.
Declaration of Sentiments is very similar to the Declaration of Independence. The DOS beings and follows the same format of the DOI, but the DOS was written directed at the rights of women, while the DOI was directed at the rights of the US (and indirectly the rights of white christian males in the US). The DOS was written by Elizabeth Stanton. The purpose of the Seneca Falls convention was to pass the resolutions in the DOS, all of which were passed except for women sufferage, and the DOS was signed by 100 men and women.
The Declaration of Sentiments, written and published by Elizabeth Cady Stanton from her book A History of Woman Suffrage, is almost a carbon-copy of the Declaration of Independence. However, it was written with mostly everyone's interests in mind, not just mens' interests, like it's guideline, so to speak, the Declaration of Independence. The D.O.S. was signed by sixty-eight women and thirty-two men.
.....continued from previous post I agree with Ursula: the Seneca Falls Convention had three main purposes. The first was to organize people and get them together. The second purpose was to educate those people about Stanton's views and show the people what she was "campaigning" for, which was womens' rights. The third purpose was to promote her and her group's views and beliefs.
The Declaration of Sentiments (published by Elizabeth Cady Stanton) and The Declaration of Independence were similar in that they both protected the basic rights and freedoms of the people. The Declaration of Independence lists the grivances of England and protects the life, liberty and property of Americans. The Declaration of Sentiments, more specifically, protects the life, liberty, and property of American women. It states that women are equal to men, and it lists the grievances of the American men.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton was one of many woment that found for the rights of women. She published the Declaration of Sentiments whichat was signed by 6o women and 30 men. However the Sencea Fall Convention took place to write the Declaration of Sentiment to help give rights to women. The Seneca Convention brought up and discussed the social, civil, and religious rights of women. I think Elizabeth Cady Stanton is a great women, because she gives great inspiration to other women
The Declaration of the Seneca Falls Convention, used the Declaration of Independence as a model. The purpose of the Seneca convention was to discuss the religous, social, and civil rights for women. The main activist in this movement was Elizabeth Cady. I guess this is was a very important part of our History because it shows the equality that we can all have. I think because of this it leads to many more equal rights movements because those few women stood up for their rights.
The Declaration of Sentiments is similar to the Declaration of Independence because they both had a similar outline. The Declaration of Sentiments used almost the same exact wordings as the Declaration of Independence does in the first two paragraphs. The Declaration of Independence stressed men’s rights against Britain. The Declaration of Sentiments states and gave reasons that women were equal to men. The document was written by Elizabeth Cady Staton, and was signed by 68 women and 32 men. The purpose of the Seneca Falls convention was held to protest against women’s rights. People wanted to discuss about the rights of women and let people aware of it.
The Decleration of Sentiments followed the Decleration of Independence, but Elizabeth Cady just altered it to be for women's rights. My favorite line is "He has withheld from her rights which are given to the most ignorant and degraded men--both natives and foreigners." This is the best point I think she makes in the whole article. Why do natives and foreiners get to vote? (who they look down upon) Why can't they allow their own women to vote? It must have taken a lot of courage to do what she did.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady. She had a lot of guts for going against the norm and actually bringing attention to what is right and letting her opinion be heard. She felt that everyone had the right to a voice and be heard. The Seneca Convention was to bring up not only female issues but also the rights for everyone that were denied.Elizabeth and others were the first to actually bring attention to the issue of everyone not just females.
Elizabeth Stanton brought major attention to all the rights that were denied to many groups of people. She wrote the Declaration of Sentiments talking about women's sufferage. It was basically written like the Declaration of Independence except with emphasis on women's rights.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written from a completely different point of view than the Declaration Independence, but with a similar structure and following the guidlines of the Declaration of Independence. The Declaration of Sentiments was written by a women, thus stressing the rights of women. Elizabeth Cady showed a lot of courage for writing this document in a time when men were superior. This article was an important step towards a women's rights movement.
The article was mainly about how the women,during the time of Elizabeth C.Stanton, wanted voting rights and any other rights that they could get and felt they deserved!!
Elizabeth Cody Stanton was very brave in standing up for not only her rights but also the rights of others. She wrote the Declaration of Sentiments in the same basic form as the Declaration of Independence except more geared toward women's rights. I admire her for standing up for herself when women were seen as inferior. The Seneca Falls convention was not only focused on women's rights but also the rights of everyone that was treated unfairly. She also worked to abolish slavery. She paved the way for other people to stand up and fight for thie rights. She was a big momumental figure in history and the Women's Rights Movement yet to come.
cont... The Declaration of Sentiments has many valid points that I think made a lot of difference for what women are able to do today. It's very significant that two women who were trying to abolish slavery (Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott)among others were also treated like slaves themselves.
Well I think that it was a good thing that elizabeth strong willed african american women.If it wasnt for her how would people know what is on the minds of those with no voice. It takes a women like her to get things done regaurdless weather it is wanted to be heard or not. Women today are a few steps ahead in life because of the voices like hers that got them where they are.African american women should appreciate and thank bold women like her for helping them get somewhere.
Both the declaration of independence and the declaration of sentiments are documents that are sharing their grievances. The women are saying how the men have mistreated and taken advantage of them and the founding fathers are saying how Britain has mistreated and taken advantage of them.But the declaration of sentiments stated complaints that should have been addressed way before then. Women were deprived of rights that belong to EVERYONE no matter what. There is no reason what so ever that women should have been asking to act on those rights.Better late than never, the Seneca Falls convention could not have come at a better time.
Its crazy how men didn't give women any rights. Thats bogus as a goose to me.Elizabeth Cady Stanton stood up for womens equality.She is a revolutionist to me because if it wasn't for her women would still be housewives. She got some G for standing up to those men.Thats my dogg for real homie.
The Declaration of Sentiments was similar to the Declaration of independence in the sense that Elizabeth Cady Stanton took the original document written by the fore-fathers and changed it to pertain to both men and women. It's purpose was to let the world know about Women Suffrage. It was extremely cool that a woman took a stand for herself and women in general. It was definitely a stepping stone for what would later come. The point of the convention was to go through all the ideas of the declaration and it was just like the convention that happened with the original document. This was also a steeping stone because now not only were women standing up for themselves with a document but they actually went out and did something about it. That made it all interesting and worth while.
The Declaration of Sentiments was signed by 68 women and 32 men it addressed women's rights and issues. The Seneca Falls Convention demanded that the rights of women be acknowledged and respected by society. It was similar to the Declaration of Independence because it stated all the type of things that the man has held back from women.(you told me to do this on 11/29 because I was absent on 11/28)
I admire every body that helped writing or supported the decloration of sentiments. this was not an easy step toward complete democracy in the United States, this men and women were brave enough to take a step toward democracy, a step that no other person could take in a society where only less than 10 percent of the population had absolute power.
i just want to point out that women rights were not really mentioned in the constutuion, Slavery was put a side too; but George Washington, and Hamilton, and Jefferson and many others had the chance to stand out for these rights if they really believed in them even though America wasn't really ready for this step, but if you truly believe in something you should stand out for it just like Elizabeth Cady Stanton and people like her.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and was signed by sixty-eight women and thirty-two men. It was on the issues of women's right to have the same rights as males. It states some of the same issues that Jefferson stated in the Declaration of Indepence. Then a list of grievences of women's subjugation to males is given. The Seneca Falls Convention was to discuss the equality of men and women which lead to women suffrage.
The Declaration of Sentiments is similar to the Declaration of Independence in the way that they both state that all men (man or women) should have equal unalienable rights. They're both declaring their freedom and rights. The form the declarations were written were very much similar; other than that I don't see much the same.
Now in the Declaration of independence the HE is reffering to the government and people in power. In the Declaration of Sentiments the HE is reffering to all MEN. The men who wrote/signed the declaration of independence (New Hampshire: Josiah Bartlett, William Whipple, Matthew Thornton. Massachusetts: John Hancock, Samuel Adams, John Adams, Robert Treat Paine, Elbridge Gerry. Rhode Island: Stephen Hopkins, William Ellery. Connecticut:Roger Sherman, Samuel Huntington, William Williams, Oliver Wolcott. New York: William Floyd, Philip Livingston, Francis Lewis, Lewis Morris. New Jersey: Richard Stockton, John Witherspoon, Francis Hopkinson, John Hart, Abraham Clark. Pennsylvania: Robert Morris, Benjamin Rush, Benjamin Franklin, John Morton, George Clymer, James Smith, George Taylor, James Wilson, George Ross. Delaware: Caesar Rodney, George Read, Thomas McKean. Maryland: Samuel Chase, William Paca, Thomas Stone, Charles Carroll of Carrollton. Virginia: George Wythe, Richard Henry Lee, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Harrison, Thomas Nelson, Jr., Francis Lightfoot Lee, Carter Braxton. North Carolina: William Hooper, Joseph Hewes, John Penn. South Carolina: Edward Rutledge, Thomas Heyward, Jr., Thomas Lynch, Jr., Arthur Middleton. Georgia: Button Gwinnett, Lyman Hall, George Walton)only had MEN in mind they weren't thinking of man kind. I found this to be selfish and wrong. When I read the Declaration of Sentiments it made me proud to see that women were afraid to voice their opinions in the early years of the United States. They used the same format as the Declaration of Independence to show they were capable of compiling a document that fought for their rights too. All the women wanted were the same rights given to their husbands (men) and fellow americans.
The Seneca Falls convention was a group of women activist (Mott, Stanton, Wright, Mary Ann McClintock, and Jane Hunt) who wanted the same freedoms as a man. They would gather to dicusssocial, civil, and religious condition and rights of woman. This is where, I believe, the womens rights movement began.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton wasa very strong women to display the courage she did. The article sh ewrote showed that women should have rights too. This articles proves that women have a mind of their own and that they can also come up with thier own ideas. It also showed that women had enough mind power to come up with such ideas.
I think the Declaration of Sentiments was very similar to the Declaration of Independence. Both documents discussed the unfair treatment of one side and requested justice and equality. On the other hand, the Declaration of Independence fought for a nation's freedom while the Declaration of Sentiments argued for the equality of women. Along with the Declaration of Sentiments fighting for women's freedom and suffrage was the Seneca Falls Convention. This large meetingwas started by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott. It was a huge convention of about 300 people, about 40 of them men. All the mistreatments of women were discussed. Women wanted and deserved equal suffrage, equality in the family, politics, and in society.
The Declararation of Sentiments is different from the Declaration of Independence because the declararation of Sentiments was written for the right's of women suffrage and anti-slavery and the Declaration of Independence was based on the rights of the elite white males only. The Seneca Fall convention was held for the agreement and the exception of women suffrage. Both men and women signed the agreement,even though they were later erased. Many of the women who fought so hard to gain respect for women didn't live to see their hard work pay off. The only female signer who live long enough to see this process through was Charlotte Woodward.
The Declaration of sentiments was writtened by Elizabeth Cady Stanton about women sufferage and how women should have equal rights like men. She listed several facts about how women are subjected to men and no fair treatment of rights which is similar to the Declaration of independence because men are asking for equal rights among men for sufferage. Funny. The Senfalls Convention was about the movement of women's sufferage and how they protest for rights and the whole process of being on the same level with men. I believe that society still hasn't changed as much, women have progressed in rights but not in ranks.
The Declaration of Sentiments is similar to the Declaration of Independence because they are both trying to recieve equal rights. They differ because the Sentiments was for women rights and the D.O.I. is men writing for equal rights for all men. The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton. The Seneca Falls Convention was a convention to bring up the topic of women's rights and make it a main topic... to basically get it recognized.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and was signed by 68 women and 32 men. It is modeled the same as the Declaration of Independence, but instead of declaring freedom from Brittain it is declaring freedom and equality for women. The purpose of the Seneca Falls Convention was to write the Declaration of Sentiments. As well as discussing issues such as equal rights for women in social, civil, and religious situations. Josh Hr 3-4
The Declaration of Sentiments was published by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and was signed by 60 women and 30 men. The Declaration of Sentiments is the fight for women rights, unlike the Declaration of Independence which was giving the all men equal right, not so much women. It is also different from the Declaration of Sentiments because the leader of the Sentiments was a woman and the women actually had a say this time around.
The Seneca Falls Convention was badically a convention trying to promote women's rights.
The declaration of Sentiments published by Elizebeth Cady Stanton was very interesting in the the sense that this was one of the first huge out cries for equality between both sexes. She attacks the truth with all her might pointing out that men and women were created equal and that they should be given the rights as any other white male. I have true respect for her in the sense that at this time women weere horridly respected and were almost forced to do what was told of them of the man, but being the "trend setter" that she proven to be, Elizebeth Cady Stanton voiced her opinion against what she thought was wrong with what she felt was right
The declaration of Sentiment was most certainly like the Decalration of Independance. It express what are you natural right if your government is "unfit" so to speak. ELizebeth design and gave reason why people of sufferage should be able to superceed the government when the government is in the wrong. Elizabeth wrote out points expressing her concern that the government needs to be rejusted so the represent all white people. They explain how women should be able to work just like men and also get a salary. She talk about how women weren't allowed in certain building and some they were such as the church. The Declaration of Sentiment is a document shows what the government isn't doing and what needs to be change in over to move on.
By reading this passage the reader is able to sort of recieve an insight as to how low women were in society back then. Women helped an great deal with the abolishment of slavery yet they weren't permitted to go to London on behaly of what they were fighting for, that seem somewhat upsetting. It seems, based on this passage, that women do the work and men take the credit. To compare this to The Declaration of Independance this follows the same outlines b/c it says how women are treated unfairly by men which is the same as how the Americans were treated unfairly by the British. One diffence though, The Declaration for Independance focused on "all people of the U.S." but the Declaration of Sentiments seems to directly focused on the women.
the declartion of independence is similar to the decleration of sentiments in the way that they both criticized the wrongs done against them by another party, the women were standing up for themselves for the first time in America and attempting to gain some type of rights, politiclly and socially
the declaration of sentiments was very close in charechter to the declaration of independance though there was no threatened break or action that would be taken it did demand many of the same rights but in this case for women. It was writen by Elizabeth Cady Stanton. The senfalls convention served the purpose of a fourm for open debate on womens rights and a battlefield for womens sufferage.
This article is an important part of history for the rights movements of women. Elizabeth Cady is very influential in writing the Declaration of Sentiments during a time of male superiority. The Declaration of Sentiment is about the rights that women should have and it is like the Declaration of Independence becasue it stesses equality and rights. It uses the same format, but the Declaration of Sentiments is more feminine and for women's rights instead of America as a whole.
The Declaration of Sentiments was very similar to the Declaration of Independence. In fact, it has a lot of the same qualities as the Declaration of Independence. For one, it talks on how everyone is created equal. Only the Declaration of Independence only says that all MEN are created equal, whereas the Declaration of Sentiments says that all MEN and WOMEN are created equal. Instead of attacking the British crown, it attacks men. This article was written by Elizabeth Cady Straton, in her book, A History of Woman Suffrage. Like Thomas Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of Independence, she is saying that we need to stand up for ourselves and fight for what we believe in. It even goes as far as taking the first two paragraphs from the Declaration of Independence to try and show the same point. We all are equal: black, white, male, and female. She is saying that we should be treated as such. This document allowed for women to start to demand reform, not just for suffrage (as not everyone wanted suffrage at this time), but to look at the role of women in politics, in religious affairs, and in civil rights. It's main purpose was to set the groundwork for the women to fight on.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and signed by 68 women and 32 men. The format was very much like the declaration of independence. It stated that all men and WOMEN were created equal. Then it went on to list 18 injuries and usurpations that men imposed on women, just like the declaration had listed 18 that the king of England had imposed on americans.After that the document went on to list several resolutions. The declaration of sentiments takes most of the exact same text from the declaration of independence to show that women were being oppressed like americans were before the war for independence and the american revolution.The Seneca Falls Convention was held to discuss the the rights of women in society, and how they were to go about changing these rights. I personally appreciate the actions these women took to stand up for womens rights because I am a young women. I admire Elizabeth Stanton for sticking by her demands in the declaration of sentimnets even when othere women like Motts thought they were too demanding.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton was the writer of The Declaration of Sentiments. I think she did a good job in writing this and she had some very strong views on women's right period. This showed that she stood up for what she believed in. She talked about how women are equal to men and how everyone should be treated equally just at the Declaration of Independence state. This was something that women were used to, so that's why I don't think anyone bothered to stand up because they were used to this treatment and it was impossible to change. Elizabeth was brave for what she done.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, I think is quite smart and brave to be able to do this. She was the only one who stood up for women rights while others didn't. she believed that women should have the same right and respect as everybody else, which are the white men. Her argument was based on the Declaration of Sentiment. This show how strong women can be when they want to.
The Declaration of Sentiemnts was written like the Declaration of Independence, but was reworded to fit the universal women suffrage rather than the suffrage people received from England.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton wrote the DOS, and 68 women and 32 men signed it.
The purpose of the Seneca Falls Convention was held to find a resolution for all the women who had suffered long enough. Men and women are created EQUAL. Women wouldn't stop until this statement was made true.
the declaration of sentiments, signed by 68 women and 32 men, and the declaration of independence are, for the most part, the same except for the fact that the declaration of sentiments emphasizes women rights, not just the fact that all men are created equal. the declaration of sentiments was written by elizabeth cady stanton, who is known for her participation in many of the reforms of that day, including the temperance and antislavery movements. the soul purpose of the meeting at seneca falls was a sort of a therapy session, if you will, for the women who had fighting. elizabeth cady read her "declaration of sentiments" and demands were proclaimed, etc., etc.
The Declaration of Sentiments was very similar to the Declaration of Independence. It states the rights that "everyone" is supposed to have. The difference is that it is emphasized upon women. Elizabeth Cady Stanton wrote and signed this document. The purpose of the Seneca Falls Conventions was when the women demanded that their rights be adhered to. This was very impressive upon the part of the women to express their ideas and do something about it.

The Declaration of Sentiments was published by Elizabeth Cady Stanton in her book, A History of Woman Suffrage. Elizabeth Cady was an American activist involved in the movement to abolish slavery. I admire Stanton for standing up for what she believed in. She demanded that the rights of women be respected and acknownledged in society. This is similar to the Declaration of Independence because, it states that we as a people should not be separated. Everyone (including women and blacks) should be entitled to the laws of nature and of God. In 1848 conventions were held for women's rights. Stanton based her agrument on the Declaration of Sentiments, which defined the purpose of the meeting. Stanton stated that all men AND women were created equal, and therefore should be treated as such. She states that women had natural rights and should be able to exercise them.
The Senfalls convention was not only for women's rights, but for anti-slavery. I admire Mott, Stanton, Wright, Mary Ann McClintock, and Jane Hunt for what they did for all all women and for the movement of anti-slavery. They convinced other women to stand up for themselves and fight for their rights. If it weren't for these women standing up for our rights, who would have been the first to do so? Would we still be fighting for the rights of women today?
Elizabeth Cady Stanton display great courage to stand up for women's right to vote. This article really show the power that women does have. Elizabeth was great to stand up and fight, but many women didn't during that time. I think that this article can work both ways,it can show the weakness of women not to fight together and the strenght to fight back, and continue fighting.
The purpose of the Seneca convention was to bring up and discuss the social, civil, and religous conditions and rights for women. Women such as Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucretia Mott, Martha C. Wright, Mary Ann McClintock, and Jane Hunt formed a get-toegther with hopes of takeing steps toward getting equality for women. This get-together was bases upon the Declaration of Sentiments (which was drawn up by Stanton) and eleven resolutions (also drawn up by stanton) which argued that women had a natural right to equality in all spheres.
This convention was definatley a great start in the womens' right moevement. It had all the right ideas and started to make an impression on many minds about how women should be equal to men as the consitution had so clearly stated. Although the resolutions that the ladies had came up with started to become recognized, women suffrage was still far off. Women suffrage was probaby the hardest equality for women to reach at the time.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton msdae everybody started to think about women's suffrage. When Lucretia Mott and herself tried for a seat at the World Anti- Slavery convention because they were female she decideed to fight back. In 1948, she wrote the Declaration of Sentaments, using the Declaration of Independence as guide, to list her grivences of men toward women. She advocated for the right for women to vote and it took 75 years for it to happen. If it wasn't for people like her women wouldn't be able to vote today. Stanton was criticized a lot by the press but she still fought on. It must have taken a lot of heart to accomplish all that she did.
Eliazabeth Cady Stanton wrote the Declaration of Sentiments in her book, "A History of Woman Suffrage". It was a very strong book. It was for equals rights for women. It was a very brave step seeing that women had basically no rights at that time. She started something that would inspire women to fight for their rights. They fought for years and years and finally they are equal to everybody else. If it weren't for women like her women probably still wouldn't have rights.
The Declaration of Sentiments is similar to the declaration of independents becuase it targets a group as the enemy. Both documents are set up similarily and both documents are biased in one way or another (--natives and foreigners in the Declaration of Sentiments and generally ignore womens rights in the Declaration of Independence) Also the lines about all men and women created equally ...life, liberty, and justice were also similar. Also both documents were written by upper, middle class. The diffrences are that this was not formed as guidelines for a new country. Also The d.o.i was written for men, but the d.o.s. was written for women. The declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Station and signed by 68 women and 32 men. The purpose of the Seneca Falls Convention was to organize the people and to promote support for the Declaration of Sentiments and to record and educate others on the women's grivences.
I'm surprised that there's at least one women back then that has the gut to stand up and fight for the womans right. There should've been more than that though. I'm also surprised that Jane Hunt, Mott, Stanton, Wright and Mary Ann McClintock encouraged the women to stand up for themselves. I mean like there's not that many men back then that would care for woman like that. They would usually only care for the men's right, not the woman's right.
The Declaration of Sentiments is very similar to the Declaration of Independence. It starts by saying that they want to make social change, and then it talks about all the abuses and injustices men have imposed on women. This follows the same format as the Declaration of Independence, except that it says how women are treated unfairly by men instead of how Americans were treated unfairly by the British. The Declaration of Sentiments even takes most of the text of its first two paragraphs right from the Declaration of Independence because it wants to make almost exactly the same point. After it lists in detail all the rights that women are denied (the list has as many entries as the Declaration of Independence had), the document ends by saying that women deserve equal rights as citizens of America. The writers of the Declaration of Sentiments obviously used the Declaration of Independence as a guide so they could show that they were being oppressed in the same way that Americans had been oppressed before the American Revolution.
The document was signed by 100 men and women from around Seneca Falls, New York. Many of the people at the convention were Quakers, who already believed in some equality for women. There were also many abolitionists in the group.
The purpose of the Seneca Falls convention was to decide an agenda for the women's rights movement. It wasn't all about suffrage; some people weren't in favor of that. The planners wanted "to discuss the social, civil, and religious condition and rights of woman" and talk about women's rights (and how they were deprived of them) in general, but not necessarily start changing things immediately.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and was signed by sixty-eight women and thirty-two men. It appears to be directly modeled after the declaration of independence, except for the fact that it is declaring equality for women instead of freedom from Britain. The Seneca Falls Convention took place in order to write the declaration of sentiments and to help give the rights described in it to women.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written to protect women's rights. It insured that women were as equal to men, allowing them life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The document allowed women to hold property, make decisions in the society, and hold high positions. Unlike the Declaration of Independence, which only allowed white males to have rights, it allowed women and their ideas to be heard, shaping the United States of America.
The Seneca Falls Convention was set up by Elizabeth Cady Stanton. She organized and lead many women protesting for their rights. It was the first act of movement for women's rights.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott came up with The Declaration of Sentiments. It is similar to the Declaration of Independence because it starts off by saying that "all men and women are created equal". This document basically sheds light on how women were treated harshly by men. The men didn't let the women vote, they took their hard earned money, and the men made them respect them. I don't think I could have survived back then because if it's not my mother, my father or my grannies, I don't bow down to anybody, especially men. If they want respect from me, they have to give respect. Also, the article said that if a man and a woman got a divorce, the children automatically go to the husband. I would have gotten killed or thrown in jail because I would never let anyone take my children away from me.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written using the Declaration of Independence as a base. It was written to protect women's rights, ensuring them that they were men's equals. Thus that means that they can hold property and hold governmental positions which in the past, only the men could do it.
The Declaration of Sentiments and the Declaration of Independence are both similar in that they both preserved the right of a people. The Declaration of Independence was written to uphold men's rights while the Sentiments was for women directly.
the Seneca convention was all about trying to get get womens rights. Elizabeth cady stanton was the women that stood up for all of the other women and she stood up for what she had believed in. she wrote the decleration of sentiments and she put them in her book. all throught out 1848 there where conventions for womens right and at those conventions the decleration was the main subject. then there was the convention of senfalls and it was also about womens right but anti-slaveryas well.
The Declaration of Sentiments is nearly the exact same as the Declaration of Independence. The women behind the Declaration want to seem as righteous as the people behind the Declaration of Independence. Elizabeth Stanton wrote the Declaration of Sentiments. A group of men and women signed it.
The purpose of the Seneca Falls Convention was to forward the rights of women. It was to make people aware of the movement and to decide what to do from there.
These two documents are similiar in their basic outline. The first two paragraphs are explanations of how all people deserve rights and are written using similiar wording. The entire second paragraph is virtually the same barring the insertion of women and is not based on secession. The last paragraphs of both are grievences and are written in a similiar fashion, i.e. "He has never permitted her to exercise her inalienable right to the elective franchise" and "He has refuted his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good."
The declaration of Sentiments was made in 1848 by 68 women and 32 men. The author was also the organizer of the Seneca Falls convention, Elizabeth Cady Stanton. This meeting was one of the first to protest for woman's rights.
The Declaration of Sentiments was presented by Elizabeth Cady. This document was signed by 68 women and 32 men. Some similarities in the documents was tht they both talk about the right of life, liberty and justice. One difference in the documents is that the declaration of indipendence was written for men and the declaration of sentiments was for women. This document was also about how women are deprived of some rights that are given to other people. Also, it disscusses the difefrences between married women and single women and how they lose their rights when their married, and even when they're single they are still excluded from society.
The Seneca Convetion was about womens rights. It helped boost the information about what the women wanted. The document looks like it was written following the guidelines of the decleration of independence.
The Declaration of Sentiments is similar to the Declaration of Independence because it used the Declaration of Independence as a model. It stressed equality and the inalienable rights of mankind, such as life, liberty, and property. The Declaration of Sentiment is different from the Declaration of Independence, however, by including the rights of women and stating that women were equal to men. Instead of writing a list of grievance against the king, the Declaration of Sentiments wrote a list of grievance against men’s treatment of women. The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Staton, and was signed by 68 women and 32 men. The Senecca Falls Convention was held to bring forth ideas of how to increase support of women’s suffrage and to discuss the rights of woman and how they would achieve those rights.
Declaration of Sentiments is very similar to the Declaration of Independence. The DOS beings and follows the same format of the DOI, but the DOS was written directed at the rights of women, while the DOI was directed at the rights of the US (and indirectly the rights of white christian males in the US). The DOS was written by Elizabeth Stanton. The purpose of the Seneca Falls convention was to pass the resolutions in the DOS, all of which were passed except for women sufferage, and the DOS was signed by 100 men and women.
The Declaration of Sentiments, written and published by Elizabeth Cady Stanton from her book A History of Woman Suffrage, is almost a carbon-copy of the Declaration of Independence. However, it was written with mostly everyone's interests in mind, not just mens' interests, like it's guideline, so to speak, the Declaration of Independence. The D.O.S. was signed by sixty-eight women and thirty-two men.
.....continued from previous post
I agree with Ursula: the Seneca Falls Convention had three main purposes. The first was to organize people and get them together. The second purpose was to educate those people about Stanton's views and show the people what she was "campaigning" for, which was womens' rights. The third purpose was to promote her and her group's views and beliefs.
The Declaration of Sentiments (published by Elizabeth Cady Stanton) and The Declaration of Independence were similar in that they both protected the basic rights and freedoms of the people. The Declaration of Independence lists the grivances of England and protects the life, liberty and property of Americans. The Declaration of Sentiments, more specifically, protects the life, liberty, and property of American women. It states that women are equal to men, and it lists the grievances of the American men.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton was one of many woment that found for the rights of women. She published the Declaration of Sentiments whichat was signed by 6o women and 30 men. However the Sencea Fall Convention took place to write the Declaration of Sentiment to help give rights to women. The Seneca Convention brought up and discussed the social, civil, and religious rights of women. I think Elizabeth Cady Stanton is a great women, because she gives great inspiration to other women
The Declaration of the Seneca Falls Convention, used the Declaration of Independence as a model. The purpose of the Seneca convention was to discuss the religous, social, and civil rights for women. The main activist in this movement was Elizabeth Cady. I guess this is was a very important part of our History because it shows the equality that we can all have. I think because of this it leads to many more equal rights movements because those few women stood up for their rights.
The Declaration of Sentiments is similar to the Declaration of Independence because they both had a similar outline. The Declaration of Sentiments used almost the same exact wordings as the Declaration of Independence does in the first two paragraphs. The Declaration of Independence stressed men’s rights against Britain. The Declaration of Sentiments states and gave reasons that women were equal to men. The document was written by Elizabeth Cady Staton, and was signed by 68 women and 32 men.
The purpose of the Seneca Falls convention was held to protest against women’s rights. People wanted to discuss about the rights of women and let people aware of it.
The Decleration of Sentiments followed the Decleration of Independence, but Elizabeth Cady just altered it to be for women's rights. My favorite line is "He has withheld from her rights which are given to the most ignorant and degraded men--both natives and foreigners." This is the best point I think she makes in the whole article. Why do natives and foreiners get to vote? (who they look down upon) Why can't they allow their own women to vote? It must have taken a lot of courage to do what she did.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady. She had a lot of guts for going against the norm and actually bringing attention to what is right and letting her opinion be heard. She felt that everyone had the right to a voice and be heard. The Seneca Convention was to bring up not only female issues but also the rights for everyone that were denied.Elizabeth and others were the first to actually bring attention to the issue of everyone not just females.
Elizabeth Stanton brought major attention to all the rights that were denied to many groups of people. She wrote the Declaration of Sentiments talking about women's sufferage. It was basically written like the Declaration of Independence except with emphasis on women's rights.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written from a completely different point of view than the Declaration Independence, but with a similar structure and following the guidlines of the Declaration of Independence. The Declaration of Sentiments was written by a women, thus stressing the rights of women. Elizabeth Cady showed a lot of courage for writing this document in a time when men were superior. This article was an important step towards a women's rights movement.
The article was mainly about how the women,during the time of Elizabeth C.Stanton, wanted voting rights and any other rights that they could get and felt they deserved!!
Elizabeth Cody Stanton was very brave in standing up for not only her rights but also the rights of others. She wrote the Declaration of Sentiments in the same basic form as the Declaration of Independence except more geared toward women's rights. I admire her for standing up for herself when women were seen as inferior. The Seneca Falls convention was not only focused on women's rights but also the rights of everyone that was treated unfairly. She also worked to abolish slavery. She paved the way for other people to stand up and fight for thie rights. She was a big momumental figure in history and the Women's Rights Movement yet to come.
cont...
The Declaration of Sentiments has
many valid points that I think made a lot of difference for what women are able to do today. It's very significant that two women who were trying to abolish slavery (Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott)among others were also treated like slaves themselves.
Well I think that it was a good thing that elizabeth strong willed african american women.If it wasnt for her how would people know what is on the minds of those with no voice. It takes a women like her to get things done regaurdless weather it is wanted to be heard or not. Women today are a few steps ahead in life because of the voices like hers that got them where they are.African american women should appreciate and thank bold women like her for helping them get somewhere.
Both the declaration of independence and the declaration of sentiments are documents that are sharing their grievances. The women are saying how the men have mistreated and taken advantage of them and the founding fathers are saying how Britain has mistreated and taken advantage of them.But the declaration of sentiments stated complaints that should have been addressed way before then. Women were deprived of rights that belong to EVERYONE no matter what. There is no reason what so ever that women should have been asking to act on those rights.Better late than never, the Seneca Falls convention could not have come at a better time.
Its crazy how men didn't give women any rights. Thats bogus as a goose to me.Elizabeth Cady Stanton stood up for womens equality.She is a revolutionist to me because if it wasn't for her women would still be housewives. She got some G for standing up to those men.Thats my dogg for real homie.
The Declaration of Sentiments was similar to the Declaration of independence in the sense that Elizabeth Cady Stanton took the original document written by the fore-fathers and changed it to pertain to both men and women. It's purpose was to let the world know about Women Suffrage. It was extremely cool that a woman took a stand for herself and women in general. It was definitely a stepping stone for what would later come.
The point of the convention was to go through all the ideas of the declaration and it was just like the convention that happened with the original document. This was also a steeping stone because now not only were women standing up for themselves with a document but they actually went out and did something about it. That made it all interesting and worth while.
The Declaration of Sentiments was signed by 68 women and 32 men it addressed women's rights and issues. The Seneca Falls Convention demanded that the rights of women be acknowledged and respected by society. It was similar to the Declaration of Independence because it stated all the type of things that the man has held back from women.(you told me to do this on 11/29 because I was absent on 11/28)
I admire every body that helped writing or supported the decloration of sentiments. this was not an easy step toward complete democracy in the United States, this men and women were brave enough to take a step toward democracy, a step that no other person could take in a society where only less than 10 percent of the population had absolute power.
i just want to point out that women rights were not really mentioned in the constutuion, Slavery was put a side too; but George Washington, and Hamilton, and Jefferson and many others had the chance to stand out for these rights if they really believed in them even though America wasn't really ready for this step, but if you truly believe in something you should stand out for it just like Elizabeth Cady Stanton and people like her.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and was signed by sixty-eight women and thirty-two men. It was on the issues of women's right to have the same rights as males. It states some of the same issues that Jefferson stated in the Declaration of Indepence. Then a list of grievences of women's subjugation to males is given. The Seneca Falls Convention was to discuss the equality of men and women which lead to women suffrage.
The Declaration of Sentiments is similar to the Declaration of Independence in the way that they both state that all men (man or women) should have equal unalienable rights. They're both declaring their freedom and rights. The form the declarations were written were very much similar; other than that I don't see much the same.
Now in the Declaration of independence the HE is reffering to the government and people in power. In the Declaration of Sentiments the HE is reffering to all MEN. The men who wrote/signed the declaration of independence (New Hampshire: Josiah Bartlett, William Whipple, Matthew Thornton. Massachusetts:
John Hancock, Samuel Adams, John Adams, Robert Treat Paine, Elbridge Gerry. Rhode Island:
Stephen Hopkins, William Ellery. Connecticut:Roger Sherman, Samuel Huntington, William Williams, Oliver Wolcott. New York: William Floyd, Philip Livingston, Francis Lewis, Lewis Morris. New Jersey:
Richard Stockton, John Witherspoon, Francis Hopkinson, John Hart, Abraham Clark. Pennsylvania: Robert Morris, Benjamin Rush, Benjamin Franklin, John Morton, George Clymer, James Smith, George Taylor, James Wilson, George Ross. Delaware:
Caesar Rodney, George Read, Thomas McKean. Maryland: Samuel Chase, William Paca, Thomas Stone, Charles Carroll of Carrollton. Virginia: George Wythe, Richard Henry Lee, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Harrison, Thomas Nelson, Jr., Francis Lightfoot Lee, Carter Braxton. North Carolina: William Hooper, Joseph Hewes, John Penn. South Carolina: Edward Rutledge, Thomas Heyward, Jr., Thomas Lynch, Jr., Arthur Middleton. Georgia:
Button Gwinnett, Lyman Hall, George Walton)only had MEN in mind they weren't thinking of man kind. I found this to be selfish and wrong. When I read the Declaration of Sentiments it made me proud to see that women were afraid to voice their opinions in the early years of the United States. They used the same format as the Declaration of Independence to show they were capable of compiling a document that fought for their rights too. All the women wanted were the same rights given to their husbands (men) and fellow americans.
The Seneca Falls convention was a group of women activist (Mott, Stanton, Wright, Mary Ann McClintock, and Jane Hunt) who wanted the same freedoms as a man. They would gather to dicusssocial, civil, and religious condition and rights of woman. This is where, I believe, the womens rights movement began.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton wasa very strong women to display the courage she did. The article sh ewrote showed that women should have rights too. This articles proves that women have a mind of their own and that they can also come up with thier own ideas. It also showed that women had enough mind power to come up with such ideas.
I think the Declaration of Sentiments was very similar to the Declaration of Independence. Both documents discussed the unfair treatment of one side and requested justice and equality. On the other hand, the Declaration of Independence fought for a nation's freedom while the Declaration of Sentiments argued for the equality of women. Along with the Declaration of Sentiments fighting for women's freedom and suffrage was the Seneca Falls Convention. This large meetingwas started by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott. It was a huge convention of about 300 people, about 40 of them men. All the mistreatments of women were discussed. Women wanted and deserved equal suffrage, equality in the family, politics, and in society.
The Declararation of Sentiments is different from the Declaration of Independence because the declararation of Sentiments was written for the right's of women suffrage and anti-slavery and the Declaration of Independence was based on the rights of the elite white males only.
The Seneca Fall convention was held for the agreement and the exception of women suffrage. Both men and women signed the agreement,even though they were later erased. Many of the women who fought so hard to gain respect for women didn't live to see their hard work pay off. The only female signer who live long enough to see this process through was Charlotte Woodward.
The Declaration of sentiments was writtened by Elizabeth Cady Stanton about women sufferage and how women should have equal rights like men. She listed several facts about how women are subjected to men and no fair treatment of rights which is similar to the Declaration of independence because men are asking for equal rights among men for sufferage. Funny. The Senfalls Convention was about the movement of women's sufferage and how they protest for rights and the whole process of being on the same level with men. I believe that society still hasn't changed as much, women have progressed in rights but not in ranks.
The Declaration of Sentiments is similar to the Declaration of Independence because they are both trying to recieve equal rights. They differ because the Sentiments was for women rights and the D.O.I. is men writing for equal rights for all men. The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton. The Seneca Falls Convention was a convention to bring up the topic of women's rights and make it a main topic... to basically get it recognized.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and was signed by 68 women and 32 men. It is modeled the same as the Declaration of Independence, but instead of declaring freedom from Brittain it is declaring freedom and equality for women. The purpose of the Seneca Falls Convention was to write the Declaration of Sentiments. As well as discussing issues such as equal rights for women in social, civil, and religious situations.
Josh Hr 3-4
The Declaration of Sentiments was published by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and was signed by 60 women and 30 men. The Declaration of Sentiments is the fight for women rights, unlike the Declaration of Independence which was giving the all men equal right, not so much women. It is also different from the Declaration of Sentiments because the leader of the Sentiments was a woman and the women actually had a say this time around.
The Seneca Falls Convention was badically a convention trying to promote women's rights.
The declaration of Sentiments published by Elizebeth Cady Stanton was very interesting in the the sense that this was one of the first huge out cries for equality between both sexes. She attacks the truth with all her might pointing out that men and women were created equal and that they should be given the rights as any other white male. I have true respect for her in the sense that at this time women weere horridly respected and were almost forced to do what was told of them of the man, but being the "trend setter" that she proven to be, Elizebeth Cady Stanton voiced her opinion against what she thought was wrong with what she felt was right
The declaration of Sentiment was most certainly like the Decalration of Independance. It express what are you natural right if your government is "unfit" so to speak. ELizebeth design and gave reason why people of sufferage should be able to superceed the government when the government is in the wrong. Elizabeth wrote out points expressing her concern that the government needs to be rejusted so the represent all white people. They explain how women should be able to work just like men and also get a salary. She talk about how women weren't allowed in certain building and some they were such as the church. The Declaration of Sentiment is a document shows what the government isn't doing and what needs to be change in over to move on.
By reading this passage the reader is able to sort of recieve an insight as to how low women were in society back then. Women helped an great deal with the abolishment of slavery yet they weren't permitted to go to London on behaly of what they were fighting for, that seem somewhat upsetting. It seems, based on this passage, that women do the work and men take the credit.
To compare this to The Declaration of Independance this follows the same outlines b/c it says how women are treated unfairly by men which is the same as how the Americans were treated unfairly by the British. One diffence though, The Declaration for Independance focused on "all people of the U.S." but the Declaration of Sentiments seems to directly focused on the women.
the declartion of independence is similar to the decleration of sentiments in the way that they both criticized the wrongs done against them by another party, the women were standing up for themselves for the first time in America and attempting to gain some type of rights, politiclly and socially
test
the declaration of sentiments was very close in charechter to the declaration of independance though there was no threatened break or action that would be taken it did demand many of the same rights but in this case for women. It was writen by Elizabeth Cady Stanton. The senfalls convention served the purpose of a fourm for open debate on womens rights and a battlefield for womens sufferage.
This article is an important part of history for the rights movements of women. Elizabeth Cady is very influential in writing the Declaration of Sentiments during a time of male superiority. The Declaration of Sentiment is about the rights that women should have and it is like the Declaration of Independence becasue it stesses equality and rights. It uses the same format, but the Declaration of Sentiments is more feminine and for women's rights instead of America as a whole.
the declaration of sentiments was similar to the declaration of independence. But the vocal points turned from men to women.
The Declaration of Sentiments was very similar to the Declaration of Independence. In fact, it has a lot of the same qualities as the Declaration of Independence. For one, it talks on how everyone is created equal. Only the Declaration of Independence only says that all MEN are created equal, whereas the Declaration of Sentiments says that all MEN and WOMEN are created equal. Instead of attacking the British crown, it attacks men. This article was written by Elizabeth Cady Straton, in her book, A History of Woman Suffrage. Like Thomas Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of Independence, she is saying that we need to stand up for ourselves and fight for what we believe in. It even goes as far as taking the first two paragraphs from the Declaration of Independence to try and show the same point. We all are equal: black, white, male, and female. She is saying that we should be treated as such. This document allowed for women to start to demand reform, not just for suffrage (as not everyone wanted suffrage at this time), but to look at the role of women in politics, in religious affairs, and in civil rights. It's main purpose was to set the groundwork for the women to fight on.
The Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and signed by 68 women and 32 men. The format was very much like the declaration of independence. It stated that all men and WOMEN were created equal. Then it went on to list 18 injuries and usurpations that men imposed on women, just like the declaration had listed 18 that the king of England had imposed on americans.After that the document went on to list several resolutions. The declaration of sentiments takes most of the exact same text from the declaration of independence to show that women were being oppressed like americans were before the war for independence and the american revolution.The Seneca Falls Convention was held to discuss the the rights of women in society, and how they were to go about changing these rights. I personally appreciate the actions these women took to stand up for womens rights because I am a young women. I admire Elizabeth Stanton for sticking by her demands in the declaration of sentimnets even when othere women like Motts thought they were too demanding.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton was the writer of The Declaration of Sentiments. I think she did a good job in writing this and she had some very strong views on women's right period. This showed that she stood up for what she believed in. She talked about how women are equal to men and how everyone should be treated equally just at the Declaration of Independence state. This was something that women were used to, so that's why I don't think anyone bothered to stand up because they were used to this treatment and it was impossible to change. Elizabeth was brave for what she done.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, I think is quite smart and brave to be able to do this. She was the only one who stood up for women rights while others didn't. she believed that women should have the same right and respect as everybody else, which are the white men. Her argument was based on the Declaration of Sentiment. This show how strong women can be when they want to.
The Declaration of Sentiemnts was written like the Declaration of Independence, but was reworded to fit the universal women suffrage rather than the suffrage people received from England.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton wrote the DOS, and 68 women and 32 men signed it.
The purpose of the Seneca Falls Convention was held to find a resolution for all the women who had suffered long enough. Men and women are created EQUAL. Women wouldn't stop until this statement was made true.
the declaration of sentiments, signed by 68 women and 32 men, and the declaration of independence are, for the most part, the same except for the fact that the declaration of sentiments emphasizes women rights, not just the fact that all men are created equal. the declaration of sentiments was written by elizabeth cady stanton, who is known for her participation in many of the reforms of that day, including the temperance and antislavery movements. the soul purpose of the meeting at seneca falls was a sort of a therapy session, if you will, for the women who had fighting. elizabeth cady read her "declaration of sentiments" and demands were proclaimed, etc., etc.
The Declaration of Sentiments was very similar to the Declaration of Independence. It states the rights that "everyone" is supposed to have. The difference is that it is emphasized upon women. Elizabeth Cady Stanton wrote and signed this document. The purpose of the Seneca Falls Conventions was when the women demanded that their rights be adhered to. This was very impressive upon the part of the women to express their ideas and do something about it.
