Alcohol companies historically opposed women's suffrage because they feared that women voters would support prohibition and temperance movements, which aimed to restrict or eliminate alcohol consumption. Women were often seen as key advocates for social reform and public health, and their votes could lead to the enactment of laws that would threaten the profitability of the alcohol industry. Consequently, these companies actively campaigned against women's voting rights to protect their interests.
