FAVOR ERA
- In the 21st century women have greater psychical and mental strength
- Equal means same values as humans one human life is as good as another
- When it comes down to it we are humans not one gender is greater than another
- We should be proud as society to have the era because it shows how far we have gotten
- They aren't weak nor infer to men we have to remember God created us both equal
ARGUMENTS AGAINST ERA
- As a society we agree but nature & biology doesn't allow us to
- That if women wanted to be treated equally they wouldn't be shown chivalry at work
- And would have to give up some of their advantages.
- Equal by law but not by mind.
- Women weren't meant to cook and clean even with education they have different priorities
OPINIONS FROM US
- We as a group feel women should be treated equally bc
- Women couldn't get the same education as mean but this is different bc a lot
- Of things has changed since before. Laws has passes women can do anything that men can do
- As well there was strong women leader in the past and currently is now. We feel Alice Paul fought for era
- We feel that as a society we should be moving forward instead of backward. We can't change how women
OPINIONS COUNT.
- We're treated in the past but we can
- Oversee that and move forward.
