Some members of the suffrage movement opposed the 14th Amendment because they thought a ban on discrimination against women should be included in the amendment. They felt that the amendment focused solely on racial discrimination in voting and did not address the issue of gender discrimination, which they believed was equally important. This omission highlighted the broader struggle for women's rights and suffrage, leading some activists to feel that the amendment fell short of their goals.
