No, I am saying the subsequent result of the 19th amendment was to create conditions which blurred the original meaning of Article II citizenship.

Prior to the 19th amendment, American women married to Foreign males gave birth to children of foreign allegiance. Foreign Women married to American males were automatically naturalized and became American citizens upon their marriage to an American male.

That all changed when women became able to pass on their citizenship. Prior to that time, citizenship of the couple and child was entirely determined by the man.
