    Woman suffrage is the right for women to vote in democratic elections.

    Explanation:

    It was a global movement. In the USA the 19th amendment allowed women to vote in 1920. There were many reasons why there was some hesitation or outright opposition. Many disapproved at the methods that woman fought for suffrage. Many believed it was in line with the Bolshevik movement and socialism and was a threat to national security. In other areas, it was the social norms being challenged. Women's domain was seen as the home. Men traditionally went to school for more years, were involved in science, business and fought in wars. Hence why they believed the domain of men was in politics and economics.
