element belongs to the class of mean then they will have a harmonious society for the
middle class does not meddle with anyone’s property, power, and wealth.

written by Arthur Brisbane, a journalist of Hearst newspaper of New York City, wrote that
female must be active in selecting public officials because: when women vote, the political
influence of the good men in the community will be greatly increased; and when a woman
votes the candidate must take care that his conduct and record meet with a good woman's
approval, and this makes better men of the candidates.
It is also in accordance with the helping behavior of both gender that is anchored with
social role theory of Alice Eagly in which she mentioned that female are more likely to
help in situations wherein they are least likely to be observed and in the context of
suffrage, women thought that selecting leaders are least likely to be observed rather than
being elected for public office.

candidates outnumbered the females for according to the Politics of Aristotle, men should
politically rule the women for the latter is more impulsive, more compassionate, more
complaining, and more deceptive than the former. Moreover, he asserted that the relation
of male to female is by nature a relation of superior to inferior and ruler to ruled." Also,
Socrates mentioned in the treatise entitled “The Republic”, that men and women must be
vested with equal opportunities and rights to education and to be a ruling element except
from the fact that men are stronger and women are weaker for a man’s body is more
vigorous than a woman’s.
