Abigail Adams used ideas originally developed to combat Parliamentary supremacy to call for consideration of legal rights for women in the letter to her husband concerning the "new Code of Laws" for the new republic. While she did advocate for joint ownership of property by married couples, she did not demand that the right to vote be extended to married women and women owning property nor did she use Jefferson's phrase to demand the abolition of slavery.
