Answer:

more reliant on women as members and social reformers

Step-by-step explanation:

The second great awakening played a major part in reviving the American society and religion in various ways. This period led to several movements related to social injustice, social rethinking and religious advocacy. These movements also included the Women's suffrage Movement as they wanted to take part in the Temperance Movement as well. The Temperance Movement was in support of prohibition of alcohol and highlighted the bad effects of alcohol on health, and religious and social gatherings. Women supported this prohibition movement. Hence, this gave women a voice themselves to come forward and Women's suffrage movement became the face of women asking for their voting rights. All in all, the second great awakening partly reshaped american religion and society as it became more reliant on women as members and social reformers.
