Active in the abolitionist movement and married\u00a0to a prominent abolitionist,\u00a0she became frustrated by the anti-slavery movement\u2019s failure to include women as equals. Out of her discontent, and that of other feminists of the time, arose the Seneca Falls convention, widely known as the beginning of organized feminism in the United States. Stanton was an editor of <em>The Revolution,<\/em> a traveling lecturer, a leader of the national Woman Suffrage Association, and the devoted mother of seven\u00a0children. Here is an excerpt from an article she wrote on infanticide:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>There must be a remedy for such a crying evil as this.

She made a speech in front of the U.S. Congress advocating suffrage, and was one of the first female stockbrokers on Wall Street. Woodhull and her sister started their own feminist newspaper\u00a0wherein\u00a0appeared an article entitled \u201cThe Slaughter of Innocents\u201d jointly written by both sisters. From the piece:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u2026 <strong>Wives deliberately permit themselves to become pregnant of children and then, to prevent becoming mothers, as deliberately murder them while yet in their wombs.<\/strong> Can there be a more demoralized condition than this?&#8230; We are aware that many women attempt to excuse themselves for procuring abortions, upon the ground that it is not murder.

Brinckerhoff<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Maddie Brinckerhoff was a popular lecturer in the Midwest who advocated women\u2019s suffrage and other women\u2019s rights causes. Because she spoke about the issue of \u201cvoluntary motherhood,\u201d along with a number of other feminists of the time, her words have led to some confusion.<\/p>\n<p>When early feminists use the term \u201cvoluntary motherhood,\u201d they did not mean abortion or contraception. Rather, they were referring to the right of women to abstain from sexual intercourse in marriage, and the duty of men to respect women\u2019s right to refuse their advances. In this way, they argued, women would have control over whether or\u00a0when to be mothers. Brinckerhoff, who advocated voluntary motherhood, was against abortion and wrote in <em>The Revolution<\/em>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>When a man steals to satisfy hunger, we may safely conclude that there is something wrong in society \u2013\u00a0<strong>so when a woman destroys the life of her unborn child,<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>it is an evidence that either by education or circumstances she has been greatly wronged.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/clinicquotes.com\/mattie-brinckerhoff-on-voluntary-motherhood-and-destroying-unborn-children\/\" target=\"_blank\">Read more of Brinckerhoff\u2019s article here.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-60496\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Elizabeth-Blackwell.png\" alt=\"Elizabeth-Blackwell\" width=\"456\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Elizabeth-Blackwell.png 456w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Elizabeth-Blackwell-300x197.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 456px) 100vw, 456px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell was the first woman to earn a medical degree.

Anthony think about abortion? There is controversy.\u00a0Anthony\u2019s paper, <em>The Revolution<\/em>, published a number of editorials against abortion during its run from 1868 to 1872. According to the research of Mary Krane Derr, a lifelong member of Feminists for Life who wrote the book <a href=\"http:\/\/smile.amazon.com\/ProLife-Feminism-Mary-Krane-Derr\/dp\/0945819625\/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1425425771&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=rachel+macnair+pro-life+feminism+yesterday+today\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Pro-Life\u00a0Feminism: Yesterday and Today,<\/em><\/a>\u00a0<em>The Revolution<\/em> refused to publish ads for abortifacients. In the late 1800s, pills and pessaries were sold by unscrupulous abortion practitioners through euphemistic ads, labeling these products as for \u201cthe remedy of illnesses peculiar to women, \u201d \u201crestoration of female regularity\u201d and \u201ccorrection of menstrual suppression.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>These were products that were alleged to cause abortions in women who inserted or took them. The illegal abortionists who placed these ads would then offer crude surgeries to women when their products inevitably failed.<\/p>\n<p>During <em>The Revolution\u2019<\/em>s run, many newspapers and publications ran ads for such products, and such businesses proliferated even though abortion was technically illegal at the time\u00a0(see reproductions of some of these ads that<a href=\"http:\/\/www.slate.com\/blogs\/the_vault\/2014\/08\/06\/history_of_contraception_19th_century_classified_ads_for_abortifacients.html\" target=\"_blank\"> appeared in New York newspapers<\/a>). These ads were lucrative for many newspapers of the time; however, Anthony and her colleagues steadfastly refused to accept them for <em>The Revolution\u2019s<\/em> entire run.<\/p>\n<p>Anthony is credited by some\u00a0scholars with writing one of the most powerful anti-abortion articles ever to appear in <em>The Revolution<\/em>; however, the article was published with only her initial, leading some to argue that it she was not in fact the author. The article, <a href=\"http:\/\/clinicquotes.com\/quotes-from-early-feminists-on-abortion-susan-b-anthony\/\" target=\"_blank\">entitled \u201cChild Murder\u201d<\/a> included the following:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Guilty? Yes no matter what the motive, love of ease, or desire to save from suffering the unborn innocent, the woman is awfully guilty who commits the deed. It will burden her conscience in life, it will burden her soul in death; but oh! Thrice guilty is he who, for selfish gratification, heedless of her prayers, indifferent to her fate, drove her to the desperation which impels her to the crime.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Revolution, 4(1):4 July 8, 1869<\/p>\n<p>One can also take into account the circumstantial evidence.\u00a0<em>The Revolution<\/em> published only editorials against abortion, and unlike other publications, it refused to publish ads for abortifacients. There is some other evidence for pro-life stance by Anthony, as well.<\/p>\n<p>In a speech Anthony made on March 14, 1875, entitled \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/feministsforlife.org\/-taf\/2007\/spring-2007.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Social Purity\u201d she said:<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The prosecution on our courts for breach of promise, divorce, adultery, bigamy, seduction, rape; the newspaper reports every day of the year of scandals and outrages, of wife murderers and paramour shootings, of abortions and infanticides, are perpetual reminders of men\u2019s incapacity to cope successfully with this monster evil of society.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Here we see that Anthony lumped abortion and with many other social evils.
