That’s a tad reductionist, don’t you think? It’s like assuming that if men were barred from voting, it would bring an end to raping & robbing, pillaging & plundering or that the absence of men’s proclivities for assertiveness and conflict would armed warfare. Its far more complicated than that. It’s down to individual temperament more than anything. In your analogy, you are forgetting the enormous portions of males that have always been indecisive weenies & women who have been staunch conservatives, Christian traditionalists, constitutionalists & free marketeers. Overwhelmingly, married women vote no different than their husbands. I don’t think gender makes as big a difference as lifestyle choices.

If you have a deep faith, value marriage & life, have traditional attitudes, value an ordered society and believe that an individuals success is decided by self-determination- you will be naturally inclined toward constitutional principles, strong moral standards, free markets & individual liberties- male or female. If, however, you are a person who doesn’t value those foundational principles, you will more likely favor faithlessness, alternative morals, collectivism, opposition to a constitution and disdain for human freedom.

What’s going on now has far more to do with life choices than gender. We might be smarter to limit voting further to Americans born in the U.S. to naturalized American citizens, married men & women, those older than 25, land & property owners, people of faith, people of anglo-celtic heritage who speak English and those that can pass a strong constitutional & historical exam 😉

You’re overthinking it. You don’t put chicks in charge of Government. Who can imagine a woman in Ikes position, running D-Day? When the Comanche attacked, it wasn’t women at the front or women saying where they are moving the tribe. Ignore it at your peril, but the fact is, no great society in all of history has been run and directed by women. Not... a...single...One.
Imagine the farce that Independence Hall would have been if the Declaration and Constitution was written by women.
And the pussified men you refer to? They were enthralled by feminine thinking.

Amazons didn’t exist. They were basically created by Homer, and as comic relief.

It has ever been thus.
And it’s not mean, it’s just the natural order. Men make poor homemakers and child rearers. Generally, when picking a kindergarten teacher, men are not your best choice.

Horses for courses.

Agree with the exception that those in the military should get to vote. And I think males should vote at majority age. And nobody on public assistance should ever be allowed to vote.
