Allowing women to vote was the great mistake,
Prove me wrong.
I think it's also an issue of letting people who do not pay income taxes vote on tax issues, bonds, initiatives, anything that involves spending tax dollars. They don't pay and therefore have no incentive to curb government spending.
The 26th amendment was a big mistake as well.
Our current dilemma is nothing new, feminized cultures are civilization destroyers. The biggest feminist in the 20th century was Vladimir Lenin because when you dangle career opportunities (Soviet females who had high aptitudes) were pushed in “white collar” careers, suffrage, and abortion you generate a powerful central State.
Escape reality much? The fact is, women DO have the vote, and telling women that they are bad sends their votes to the other side.
Pull your head out.
“women DO have the vote, and telling women that they are bad sends their votes to the other side.”
You have a point there.
OK, Adam.
Absolutely.
FR represents God and conservatism.
the FR women hating men on FR are only fueling feminism and justifying its existence.
Melania Trump is the problem??
Probably because there were so many Quakers in Philadelphia. The Founders got to hear females speaking their thoughts and opinions in the Quaker meetings and drew the obvious conclusions.
Actually, that's intellectually lazy.
When you make a claim, nobody is obligated to take it as fact unless you provide the proof that you're right.
So you claim that women voting is a mistake.
Prove you're right. Show it.
A mathematical impossibility. You misstated your source: it said those figures are not for those "voting", but rather for those "registered to vote."
Obviously, I disagree. Other than the original, laudable fight of the aboltionists to end slavery, it has not been white Christian married people who clamored for every other group besides male landowners to have the vote. Universal suffrage has mortally wounded the value of the vote. This republic was not meant to be a popular democracy.
Some women are part of the problem. Cultural rot is a bigger problem.
Abolition of a poll tax was the problem. People who have no steak in the country or the outcome of elections shouldn’t be allowed to vote. Black, white or yellow.
If you did a well researched study I’m certain you would find a correlation between men who think women don’t deserve the right to vote and men who can’t get laid.
When Clinton was President, I recall a radio call-in show where women called in saying that Clinton was “sooooo handsome!!!” and looked like a movie star and they were so jealous of Monica Lewinski and wished they could do to Bill what she had done. And they probably voted.
Don’t assume you are wiser than the Founders, You Are Not
Agreed. And I did not read beyond that. The opening tone to that screed of humorless haughtiness was an immediate turn-off.
You could have made your point without the first five words of your post.
I don’t go on what some television, media, or anyone else, even someone like you tells me. I go on what I see and hear around me, not what is processed and fed to me, and I haven’t for decades.
So when I say single white women might indeed be an issue, I say it on the basis of what my personal interactions with them tell me, not what I see on the news, in a poll, or in the media, because I don’t buy any of it, and haven’t for a long time.
Your concern about surveillance is well founded, but your way of saying it was both condescending in tone (right from the get-go with your “You people are killing me” comment, which giving you the benefit of the doubt, I assume you didn’t intend to come across that way...the way it did for me and possibly others) and not relevant to the subject except in the sense that people may develop their opinions based on what they see on TV or on the Internet.
In this discussion of female voting, people are recognizing (albeit in a circuitous way) that there are fundamental differences between men and women that go beyond sexual anatomy, specifically in the way their brains work and process data.
That is a bigger fundamental fact that is directly relevant to this subject than surveillance is. And that difference is not a “psyop”. It’s real. The question is how much does it contribute to this issue to women’s choices in voting.
I am of the camp the men and women bring different things to the table when it comes to looking at things.
Women have perspectives that are different from those that men often have. Not saying those perspectives are better or worse, just saying they are different.
And the same goes for men. We bring our male perspective when analyzing things.
I believe fully there is a yin-yang perspective, in that if those two perspectives are combined, the strength of our ability to analyze something is wider and deeper than if men were making the decisions alone.
I abhor largely the notion that only having men making decisions, or vice versa,, is superior. I am fully against having women in military combat positions, but it isn't because I think the intellectual input or amount of courage in women is lacking. v It is largely due to the physical, logistical, and changes that are introduced when two sexes are allowed, and none of them are positive. And it is not due to "women" themselves...it is to the environment of a co-ed military that is destructive to the mission, and that is related to the physical and sexual differences between men and women.
I’m guessing 400 posts and a free-for-all.
