Democracy is the empowerment of the mentally weak masses to employ the state as a proxy to steal from their neighbors. It was inevitable that women would get the vote in such a system because it was inherently unstable (due to being subject to the whims of the self-interested masses) and thus incompatible with the rule of law. There will never be reform at the ballot box because the state-dependent female voters will never allow it. We should have preserved the limited franchise republics our forefathers gave us.
