Explanation

The suffragette movement, which gained momentum in the late 19th and early 20th centuries (particularly in the UK and USA), demanded the right to vote for women. 'Suffrage' means the right to vote. The movement, led by figures like Emmeline Pankhurst, used both peaceful and militant tactics to achieve women's suffrage. The main demand was simply voting rights for women, not restricted to propertied women.
