The Massachusetts Man Suffrage Association argued that women’s suffrage would not have a significant effect on government. They believed that it is the proportion of votes which decides issues, not the total number. They also argued that women’s votes would not have sufficient impact because it was felt that they did not have comparable or better mental or moral characteristics than men.
