I'd like to remind everyone that universal men voting rights are not that much older in most countries.

    A good point! In London,

    1918 – Representation of the People Act This is effectively when universal male suffrage happened. All men aged 21+ could vote

    1928 – Equal Franchise Act Full equality: women could vote at 21+, the same as men.

    People keep making this a men vs women thing, but that's a distraction. There is no war but the class war. Don't let the owner class further divide the proletariat.

    Ok. Everybody can get back to meme'n now.
