There were two major issues related to Suffrage: the Universal Suffrage and the Vote for Women. Both aspects gave rise to a lot of controversy, polemics and struggle (causing bloodshed even!). In both cases, the conservative upper classes were opposed because: 1. they considered women had largely inferior intellects and therefore they needed guidance (and couldn't be trusted to cast their votes) and 2. allowing the poor to vote would spell the end of their privileges, of life as they knew it.
