The Mayflower Compact, signed by the forty-one male passengers aboard the Mayflower in 1620, established a social contract for self-governance among the settlers. The signers agreed to form a "civil body politic" for their mutual benefit and to create just and equal laws for the colony. This agreement marked a foundational moment for democratic governance in America, laying the groundwork for future political structures.

The signers of the Mayflower Compact were all male. The compact was signed in 1620 by the male passengers aboard the Mayflower, primarily composed of Pilgrims and other settlers. Women did not participate in the signing, as societal norms of the time typically restricted political and civic engagement to men.
