You do understand the ramifications of "interpreting" the Equal Protection Clause to give women the vote, don't you? Once upon a time, in a less judicially aggressive era, people did so understand. That's why it took a CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT some fifty years after the 14th was ratified to establish a constitutional guarantee of female suffrage.

Please lay out what ramifications you are talking about.
