Lady Constance Georgina Bulwer-Lytton (January 12, 1869 - May 2, 1923) was an influential British suffragette activist, writer, speaker and campaigner for prison reform, votes for women, and birth control. She was a member of the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), the most militant group of Suffragette activists. She was imprisoned four times including once in Walton gaol in Liverpool under the nom de guerre Jane Warton, where she was force fed. She chose the alias Jane Warton to avoid receiving special treatment and privileges because of her family title. In 1909 she used a piece of broken enamel from a hairpin to carve the letter "V" (for Votes for Women) into the flesh of her breast, exactly over the heart. Her heart attack, stroke and early death at the age of 54 have been attributed in part to the trauma of hunger strike and force feeding by the prison authorities.
