El "Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen" (1789) inicialmente estaba centrado en los derechos de los hombres, sin incluir a las mujeres en su alcance. Las mujeres, al no ser reconocidas en este documento, serían el grupo menos receptivo, ya que sus derechos no eran abordados. Los abogados podrían ver interés en las cuestiones legales, los banqueros y exportadores en derechos de propiedad y comercio (que se abordan en el documento).
