Over a century ago, anti-suffragists knew what would happen if we gave women the same voting rights as men. We are now reaping what was sown. I will list some of the early arguments made against women voting. Its scary how accurate our red pill fore fathers were, back when politica correctness was considered a bad joke.

  • All government rests ultimately on force, to which women, owing to physical, moral and social reasons are not capable of contributing.

  • Women are not capable of full citizenship for the simple reason that they are not available for purposes of national and imperial defence. The effect of introducing a large female element to the electorate would undoubtedly be to weaken the centre of power in the eyes of these dependant millions.

  • Woman Suffrage is based on the idea of the equality of the sexes, and tends to establish those competitive relations which will destroy chivalrous consideration.The physical nature of women unfits them for direct competition with men.

  • Women would be corrupted by politics and chivalry would die out

  • If women became involved in politics, they would stop marrying, having children, and the human race would die out

  • Women were emotional creatures, and incapable of making a sound political decision

  • “Women’s role is in local affairs.”

  • Women are already represented by their husbands.

  • It is dangerous to change a system that works.

  • Women do not fight to defend their country

Serious concern about the impact of women getting the vote was quite widespread throughout the duration of the campaign. This concern had complex roots bound up with Victorian views about women’s position in society. On the one hand women were considered too precious and innocent to become embroiled in public life, on the other they were thought too irrational and emotional to make an intelligent contribution. Whatever their abilities, their place was thought to be in the home.

Women's suffrage is the worst thing to ever happen to Western civilization.

Suffrage coincided with immediate increases in state government expenditures and revenue and more liberal voting patterns for federal representatives, and these effects continued growing over time as more women took advantage of the franchise. Contrary to many recent suggestions, the gender gap is not something that has arisen since the 1970s, and it helps explain why American government started growing when it did. Most women, when allowed to vote, vote democrat. Can't get enough of that state assistance. More welfare, more single motherhood. Women don't want to work as hard as men do, but they want more benefits, and they as a rule, will vote for the party willing to spend the most on them, just like they'll beta marry the man who will spend the most on them.

Feminism is a socialist, anti-family, political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians. When the Senate took up the bill, one member asserted that "disaster and ruin would overtake the nation." Suffrage would lead inevitably to "government by females" because "men could never resist the blandishments of women." Instead, he recommended that women "attach themselves to some man who will represent them in public affairs."

  • Female voters, by and large, will be more liberal with the use of government or military force. This is because they are, even today, exempt from the worst of combat duties and potential military conscription

*It was not only because he thought that women were unfitted by their physical nature to exercise political power, but because he believed that the majority of them did not want it and would vote against it, that he asked the House to pause before they took the step suggested by the honorable member for Merthyr Tydfil. He believed that if women were enfranchised the end would be disastrous to all political parties. He therefore asked the House to pause before it took a step from which it could never retreat. *

Women's suffrage is a more dangerous leap in the dark than it was in the 1860s because of the vast growth of the Empire, the immense increase of England's imperial responsibilities, and therewith the increased complexity and risk of the problems which lie before our statesmen - constitutional, legal, financial, military, international problems - problems of men, only to be solved by the labour and special knowledge of men, and where the men who bear the burden ought to be left unhampered by the political inexperience of women.

"She quoted the words of Lady Jersey: "Put not this additional burden upon us." Women were not equal to men in endurance or nervous energy, and she thought she might say, on the whole, in intellect.

*Funny how society degenerates as soon as women's rights become established. *
