Most women in the US change take their husband’s last name after marriage. Next to no men do this. Your birth certificate has the name you had at birth on it, not your married name. Your ID has your current legal name, married name in the case of most married women. These will not match for the vast majority of married women, causing them to not be able to vote, and will pose no problem to the majority of men. Does that make sense?
They do, this will require ID as well as proof of citizenship, two documents. The birth certificate is the one everyone has, since they are given at birth. So men, unmarried women, and married women who did not change their name, can go vote without obtaining any additional documentation, while most married women will now have to go through the process and pay large fees for additional documentation.

What doesn’t make sense is when this is requested, why doesn’t everyone else have to provide ID?
