RE: The savage treatment that women suffragists endured for the right to vote.

I once saw Ann Coulter say that women shouldn't be allowed to vote, because most of them are left leaning that get the Democrats elected. She doesn't really count as a female conservative though, because she isn't female. In fact, she isn't human. She is just a bag of pus and bile that somehow managed to learn to talk.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

I was thinking Ann Coulter but couldn't remember for sure if she was one who said it or not. I guess if she wants to voluntarily give up her right to vote, that's fine with me. But don't belittle and demean what those first suffragettes suffered for (no pun intended) just because you think that an entire segment of the population shouldn't have the right to vote because a lot of them don't vote the way you want them to. Typical conservatives, always wanting to take rights away from different groups of people who did nothing wrong other than happening to be born into those groups.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

I guess they didn't count on so many women not having stockholm syndrome.

Women who don't ask for it don't deserve it.
But men get the right without asking for it?
