Question

why did some women believe they should have the right to vote?
a. women knew how to save money.
b. it was a natural right.
c. women now went to school.
d. women understood foreign affairs better than men.

Explanation:

To determine why some women believed they should have the right to vote, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Knowing how to save money is not related to the right to vote, so this is incorrect.
• Option B: The idea of natural rights (rights inherent to all people) was a key argument for women's suffrage. Women argued that voting was a natural right they should possess, so this is a valid reason.
• Option C: Attending school does not directly justify the right to vote, so this is incorrect.
• Option D: There's no basis to claim women understood foreign affairs better than men, and this is not a core argument for women's suffrage, so this is incorrect.

Answer:

B. It was a natural right.
