What factual examples are there that the militancy of the suffragettes helped them get the vote?

What some people consider "militancy," other people considered determination. The suffragists were determined to call attention to their cause, and they knew that by attracting the newspapers and magazines (commercial radio was not yet in existence), they could create a conversation about the unfairness of denying women the right to vote. The leading suffragists were willing to to perform public stunts to make people notice, and to call attention to the cause of votes for women. Some male newspaper reporters called the suffragists "radicals" and "militants," but that is not how most of them thought of themselves. A good example was Inez Milholland, a trained attorney and feminist, who was also known for her physical beauty (it was a common stereotype of that time that suffragists were unattractive and unable to find a husband; Milholland was not only beautiful but happily married). She participated in a pro-suffrage parade in Washington DC in 1913, around the time that President Wilson was about to be inaugurated. Milholland was one of the most visible of the marchers-- she was draped in a white cape, and riding a white horse. Large audiences watched the parade, which featured floats and costumed marchers. Suddenly, some anti-suffrage protesters began attacking the marchers; news reports were unclear as to how many protesters were opposed to suffrage and how many resented the timing of the march-- it took attention away from President Wilson. Whatever the reason, when the suffragists were being attacked, the police did nothing to protect them. The public was horrified to see how badly the suffragists had been treated, and it earned them more support. The next time there was a march in support of votes for women, many more people participated, including a growing number of men.

What were the differences between the suffragists and the suffragettes?

They are really two terms for the same thing. The difference is that "suffragist" is the term supporters of women's suffrage used for themselves. "Suffrgette" was applied to the same people, but by those who opposed women's suffrage. "Suffragette" was intended to be at least slightly insulting. A suffragist is a generic name for anyone who advocates extending voting rights to women; a suffragette is the feminine of suffragist. The suffragists were more peaceful in their campaign to get votes for women. The suffragettes were more militant and violant, and some of their methods included arson, window smashing and hunger strikes. Both groups wanted votes and equal rights with men. The difference between suffragists and suffragettes were that the suffragettes were destructive campaigners the believed that they had to go to extremes to win the women's vote's of the suffragettes jumped in front of a horse to prove how dedicated she was to the cause she became a mar ta for women's vote's would train them self to railings ,hunger strikes and set fire to letter boxes and all diffrent extreme things.The suffragists however believed in a More tactile way they would send letter to the members of Parliament have meetings and they let men join the suffragists which the suffragettes would not.The suffragists did not break the law like the suffragettes but they would put posters up and have meetings with parliament.The suffragists did not support the suffragettes actions and beleived they would lose the chance of women getting the vote by being so extreme.
