These two killers are why men didn’t let women vote. The first thing they did was to ban booze and legalize abortion.

Half right. The first and only time women voted as more-or-less a united bloc, was in voting in prohibition. A bad incident. But I don't call it a bad "precedent," because there was no "subsequent." That kind of female bloc-voting never happened again.

Abortion was not legalized by the actions of the female subset of he electorate. Between the late 60's and the early 70's, a quite limited legalization of criminal abortion was OK'd in a handful of states (Ny, CA), but turned back in an even greater number of instances by the electorate (male and female) at the state level.

Then it was forced on the entire country by nine unelected, black-robed MEN in the U.S. Supreme Court in 1973.

Something we never asked for, that they gave us--- good and hard.
