they had a duty to improve society.
Women in the Progressive Era argued for social reform by highlighting the need for improved labor conditions and suffrage. They emphasized that women's roles in the home and community equipped them with unique insights into social issues, allowing them to advocate effectively for reforms such as child labor laws, public health initiatives, and educational opportunities. By demanding the right to vote, women sought to gain a political voice to influence legislation that directly affected their lives and the well-being of their families.

Women antisuffragists
Two significant successes of the women's movement include the achievement of women's suffrage, which granted women the right to vote in many countries, notably the United States with the 19th Amendment in 1920. Additionally, the movement has made substantial strides in advancing gender equality in the workplace, leading to legislation such as the Equal Pay Act of 1963 and Title IX in 1972, which aimed to eliminate gender discrimination in education and employment.

The Progressive Movement in the United States was not started by one person or one group. The progressive ideas and ideals that were expressed in the early years of the 20th century go back to the ideas expressed by Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence. The Progressive Movement inherited ideas and reforms from such groups as the Mugwumps, the groups leading the Social Gospel movement, the women's movement which goes back to the 19th century, Populism, and even some socialistic ideas put forth in the late 19th century. Basically, the progressives saw ills in society at all levels of government--local, state, and national. They attempted to correct these evils and ills in various ways. The thing that made the Progressive Movement more successful than previous groups attempting reform was that the progressivies appealed to a wide variety of people and ideas. They included members of most political parties as well as the poor, middle, and upper classes of society. There were progressive businessmen, progressive politicians, and progressive individuals and groups. Another factor in the success of the movement was that there were three progressive presidents who pushed the ideals of the movement, and leading senators and representatives who helped create the public support for the movement's reforms.
