    The younger generation is not educated well enough to understand we are a Republic. This was established to protect us from democratic socialism. The rule of the people is frequently a failure because you cannot trust people to make rational decisions.

    The Republic fell when the 19th amendment was ratified. Hello irrational

    So, you don't think women should be allowed to vote in the USA?

    Is that what you're saying? Well, it *IS* what you're saying.

    You're even more stupid than I previously thought.

    Go away, doofus.

    The 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified on August 18, 1920, grants women the right to vote, prohibiting any U.S. citizen from being denied the right to vote based on sex. This amendment was the result of a long struggle for women's suffrage in the United States.

    Hi Jcurtis! I am glad I get to vote. The
    'Republic' might be a little shakey these days but it is still here. :)

    The founding fathers Republic is long gone. They never planned for women to vote.

    So, I'll ask: What's the problem with women voting?

    Also, times were different when the US constitution was written. The founding fathers might not have thought slavery would be abolished either (which wasn't until the 13th amendment).

    Very different. Infant mortality rates were super high (I recently heard as high as 60%) and so couples had a *lot* of kids, which meant that (married) "women" (many of them teens) spent the vast majority of their time having babies and taking care of them (which was also much harder at the time). Now with infants surviving almost always these days, couples of fewer kids and thus women are more available to be (more) educated and participate in the workforce and thus be more informed on votable issues or candidates.

    I suppose not allowing women to vote back then probably seemed like the practical thing to do rather than being a sexist thing.. Just seems weird to think about by today's standards.
