    The ideas associated with compelled and withheld are injustice and oppression.

    The author of this text is talking about how men are oppressing women, by depriving them of their rights which even 'the most ignorant and degraded men' have, and women do not. The author is quite clear in her idea that this is degrading and unjust, believing that women deserve more than what they had at the moment when the Declaration of Sentiments was written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton in 1848.
