  Along the same lines, Broad and Green (2009, 172–79) point out that there is no necessary inference from the Quaker theory of spiritual equality to the view that women as well as men ought to have equal access to social goods, such as education. The Quakers’ arguments do not logically lead to equal education for women, because women do not require an education in order to attain salvation or to be in the spirit of the Lord. Their arguments do not logically lead to equal employment opportunities or full political participation for women either, because it is only necessary that women be active and employed in religious matters. In short, the Quaker theory of sexual equality does not amount to a fully articulated feminist theory of political equality.
