Answer 1

The most feasible point of view attributed to Currier and Ives is against women's suffrage, based on arguments citing women's delicacy and domestic roles. Advocates contested this with arguments for voting rights, noting the unfairness in excluding women from suffrage.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that most likely represents the point of view of Currier and Ives, based on the historical context given, is that women should not be allowed to vote because of their perceived dependent state and societal roles. During the time when women's suffrage was a contentious issue, the prevailing arguments against it often cited women's supposed delicate natures and domestic responsibilities, as suggested in the Essex Result and the doctrine of coverture, which dictated that married women could not own property or pay taxes and therefore did not meet the qualifications for voting. However, this reasoning was challenged by advocates like Hannah Corbin and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who argued for women's voting rights and highlighted the inequities in barring women from political participation.
