In the Declaration of Sentiments, presented at the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848, women demanded equal rights and recognition under the law. They called for suffrage, the right to vote, educational and employment opportunities, and the ability to participate fully in public life. The document highlighted the injustices women faced, such as lack of property rights and legal standing, asserting that these inequalities stemmed from a patriarchal society. Ultimately, it served as a foundational text for the women's rights movement in the United States.

The document that influenced the Seneca Falls convention was called The Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions. Seneca Falls was the site of the first women's rights convention in the United States.
The first line of the Declaration of Sentiments states, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men and women are created equal." The key phrases that are not present in the Declaration of Independence include "and women" and the emphasis on equality between genders. While the Declaration of Independence focuses on "all men," the Declaration of Sentiments explicitly addresses women's rights, highlighting the document's intent to advocate for gender equality.
