After reading Steven Biel\u2019s \u201cUnknown and Unsung,\u201d the chapter brought some light into\u00a0gender and what the other gender had to say about the Titanic. The sinking of the Titanic was a look into Women’s Suffrage. An idea that I did not know was tied to this ships sinking into the ocean. \u00a0“The chivalry displayed on the\u00a0Titanic,<\/em> which proved to\u00a0many that women didn’t need the vote and that American society was basically sound, demonstrated precisely the opposite to feminists\u00a0such as these.” (Biel 311) I found it interesting how Biel is relating the two things in this quote. \u00a0The idea that men were being chivalric to help out the women and letting them survive to make the race go on. (Biel) That they were not only saving women and children but also the human race as well at the same time. I see how some feminist might of seen this as a wrong but other cheering and being happy about the men leaving their lives behind and letting the opposite gender survive. \u00a0This can be related back to the post\u00a0zhedrick<\/a>.\u00a0zhedrick<\/a>\u00a0talks about how the Industrial Revolution and this was talking about the Sufferage\u00a0Movement as well as the progressive movement. \u00a0I do see how this movement was also an impact not only the economic side but also political. Having Women vote int he American elect is a feat that they have been fighting for. Biel was able to relate the Titanic to the rise of women in America.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
