EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph captures a group of young men dressed as suffragettes during the Fancy Dress Carnival in Fallowfield, Manchester, circa 1909. The men, donning Votes for Women signs, proudly display their commitment to women's rights and the suffrage movement. One sign in particular stands out, reading "Ursula Fights for Women's Rights." The Suffragette Medal Competition, an event where participants could win awards for the most authentic suffragette costume, is suggested by the presence of the signs. The historical significance of this image lies in its challenge to gender norms and societal expectations of the time. Men participating in the suffrage movement and wearing suffragette costumes during a carnival demonstrates the widespread support for women's rights and the growing momentum of the suffrage movement. This photograph offers a unique perspective on the suffragette movement and the role men played in advocating for women's suffrage.
