What is the topic of this passage?
Be more generous and favorable to [the Ladies) than
your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into
the hands of the Husbands. Remember all Men would
be tyrants if they could. If particular care and attention
is not paid to the Ladies we are determined to foment
a Rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any
Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation.
O religion
O patriotism
O the rights of women
O the American Revolution
-Abigail Adams, 1776
