Drawing on a wide range of sources, such as newspapers, diaries, letters, speeches and Home Office papers, The Men's Share? offers new insights into the women's suffrage movement. Through a study of the language and ideas of male suffragists, the authors outline the transformations in masculine identities and concepts of masculinity. Reactions to militancy, the political partnership of the Pethick-Lawrences and the impact of war are also subjects considered by the contributors to this volume. The Men's Share? demonstrates that male support for the women's suffrage movement was both extensive and diverse. At the same time, the authors highlight the equivocal nature of much of this support and the reluctance of many male activists to challenge their own masculinity. This volume advances the study of gender roles, feminism and the gendered construction of politics between 1890 and 1920.
