In the early 1920s, Mr. Kelly Miller argued against women's suffrage stating:

Women are physically weaker than men and cannot compete with them in activities of public and practical life. Politics is a game of force and women are too weak to be given an obvious role. Women lack a sense of what is right for the public if those ideas disagree with their personal feeling and interest.

Which statement most accurately describes Mr. Miller's argument?

His argument is strong because it shows how most people felt about women in the 1920s.

His argument is weak because it is based on poor assumptions about women's skills and abilities.

His argument is strong because it relies on scientifically proven facts about men and women.

His argument is weak because he does not provide his opinion regarding women's suffrage.
