Accepted Answer

# Brief Explanations:
1. Susan B. Anthony argues that her natural, civil, and political rights are ignored as a citizen, and that being denied the right to vote is a denial of her right of consent as one of the governed and a form of taxation without representation as laws are made by men for men's favor.
2. Elizabeth Cady Stanton supports women's suffrage because she believes that a government of the most virtuous educated men and women would better represent the whole and protect the interests of all than the representation of either sex alone. The quote "surely a government of the most virtuous educated men and women would better represent the whole and protect the interests of all than could the representation of either sex alone" supports this.
3. Lucretia Mott exemplifies the injustice that women's property has been taxed equally with men's to sustain state - endowed colleges, but women have not been permitted to enter those high seminaries of learning.
4. The 14th Amendment does not explicitly guarantee women the right to vote. It focuses on citizenship, due - process, and equal protection under the law. While it states that all persons born or naturalized in the US are citizens and no state shall abridge their privileges or immunities, it does not specifically mention the right to vote for women.

# Answer:
1. Arguments by Susan B. Anthony: Ignored citizen rights; taxation without representation as laws favor men.
2. Elizabeth Cady Stanton's reason: A mixed - sex government would better represent and protect all. Quote: "surely a government of the most virtuous educated men and women would better represent the whole and protect the interests of all than could the representation of either sex alone".
3. Injustice by Lucretia Mott: Women taxed for colleges they can't attend.
4. Women were not guaranteed the right to vote by the 14th Amendment as it doesn't specifically mention women's suffrage, focusing mainly on citizenship and equal protection.
