		Republicans framed their attacks in terms of gender roles, for example when Andrew White dismissed Bryan supporters as "unbalanced men and hysterical women." Many Republicans claimed that free-silver men and women had the roles backwards: men were weak and effeminate, while women were aggressive and "unsexed."

		Republicans stressed maintainance of the gold standard and of high protective tariffs that would protect American jobs and wages.
