Outline Path # Intro: Do any of you see a bottle of beer and see it is the devil, trying to take your soul. We if you do your insane, even when people saw alcohol as a demon in the 1800s, not literally of course. 0.) I'm a guy and I have to admit, I usually never research the women's side of an event, so I decided to see how women gained power and suufrage through the temperence movment. What's the temperence movement you may ask? Well buddy, I tell you what it is.

1.) People began to become tired of alcoholruining society, In the 1830's temperence started to become a brand spankin' new movement. Starting with alcohol not getting purchased in large quanities, thens states started to ban it, but more interesting people took a more interesting approach.

3.) Fed up with men coming home drunk, women decided to do something about evil alcohol.

4.) Not from 1800s proves point though.

5.) A specific group movment started in 1873. in Hillsboro, Ohio. Some women heard a __rousing__ sermon on evil alcohol at church. What could they do about the plauge of evil? They went to the nearest saloon and................ They prayed, not protested. These women turned into the Women's Christian Tempernce Union.

6.) Image to prove point.

7.) The WCTU got the idea that if they could protest about alcohol, they could work on getting rid of more of societies plagues such as prostitution, crime, and poor working conditions. Feminst Leader of WCTU Frances Willard Scott began to push for a home protection ballot that would elimnate problems such alcohol and unplanned sex, as she believed women were the stronger sex.

9.) Since women were able to ban together for a cause, they gained strength. This allowed them to band together for suffrage, equal rights, and other important topics. But what if women did not gain strength from the temperance movement?
