This amendment has affected women all over the country and will continue to do so as long as it is in affect. Because of the 19th amendment, girls and women like myself have a say in what goes on in our country and a voice to say what needs to be changed. Being a girl, I can't imagine my life without this amendment. While it is just a voting right, it gave women more freedom and was the beginning of an era of freedom and self expression. Thanks to this amendment, women are now free to make their own choices and are equals to the men in our society.
