Women Will Be Real Equals in 2023
Alice Paul Predicts Bright Future for Sex Through Feminist Revolt
What effect will modern feminism have on the course of history for the next 100 years? The Washington Times has asked an eminent feminist, Alice Paul, to contribute to the series by prominent men and women on the world in 2023. At least one effect of feminism will be to make a woman president of the United States, says Miss Paul.

Directing Head, National Woman's Party
It will not require one hundred years to elect a woman President of the United States. Before 2023 we will see a woman in the White House as chief executive of the nation and women will comprise half of the membership of Congress.
Throughout the ages, the oppression of women, as a sex, has existed. Once having freed themselves from the restrictions to which they have so long submitted and that have made them subject creatures since the beginning of history, women will have the opportunity to revolutionize the world. If they use their opportunity, the world a hundred years from now will be as if a new creation had been achieved.
Real Equals Soon
My hope for women one hundred years from now is that they no longer will be subject to men in law or custom, that they no longer will be regarded or regard themselves as inferiors, that they no longer will be the governed half of society, but will participate equally with men in the direction of life.
My hope is that one hundred years from now the world will no longer be a man's world, but a woman's and man's world with each sex participating equally in the control of government, of family, and of industry.
Changes in Morals
Legislation by sex will then be considered as undemocratic as legislation by creed or color. There will be a single moral standard. There will be no sex in work, but every occupation open to women and restrictions upon the hours, conditions, and remuneration of labor will apply alike to both sexes. Women will be able to enter the priesthood, the ministry and any position of authority in the church on an equal basis with men. Women as well as men will represent our country abroad in the diplomatic service.
The great changes in marriage that will take place within a hundred years will, I believe, establish a woman as a separate identity after marriage, able to contract with her husband regarding the marriage relationship. She will no longer be treated in law as dependent upon her husband for support, but the mutual contribution of husband and wife to the family maintenance will be recognized.
