“No queer marriage, no abortion, school prayer, must be 21 to vote, no women voting, women couldn’t own property, unrestricted gun ownership.”
I’m quite sure women could own property LOL!
As to women voting, I’m a bit conflicted on that one... ;-)

In most cases you would be wrong.
“Massachusetts was one of the first jurisdictions that passed law in 1787 allowing married women to own property under certain circumstances. Single women could inherit land. Once a single woman married, the land would come under the control of her husband.
Women were not given substantial property rights in all states until around 1900.”
