The proposed Equal Rights Amendment of 1923 builds upon the ideas of the Nineteenth Amendment primarily by addressing broader issues of gender equality beyond just the right to vote. While the Nineteenth Amendment guarantees women the right to vote, the Equal Rights Amendment aimed to ensure that women have equal rights in all aspects of life, not limited to voting.

Thus, the correct answer is:

D. It promotes all possible equal rights for women.
