the only question left to be settled now is: are women
persons? and i hardly believe any of our opponents will have
the hardihood to say they are not. being persons, then,
women are citizens; and no state has a right to make any
law, or to enforce any old law, that shall abridge their
privileges or immunities. hence, every discrimination against
women in the constitutions and laws of the several states is
today null and void, precisely as is every one against
negroes.
