I found some cool info

I was surfing Wikipedia this afternoon, and I found some neat stuff about the Seneca Falls Convention.
Much like Mary Wollstonecraft's "Vindication of the Rights of Man," the Convention, instead of creating a whole new template of rights, adapted existing material; Wollstonecraft changed Edmund Burke's reflections on the French Revolution, which benefited the male sex, to a document that proved women needed just as many rights as men.
The Seneca Falls Convention started in the 1840's, at a time when America had shifted from Jefferson's vision of a nation of independent agrarians to a cluster of capitalists. Various evils, like alcoholism, slavery, demonic treatment of the mentally ill, and the legal disadvantages of women caused both men and women to join reform groups, which sought to eliminate these curses upon society. The Convention originated from one of these reform groups.
