1. My grandmother was a working teacher adult before she could vote.

This was not that long ago, that women were not full citizens.

2. and, of course, the amendment only applied to white women.

3. I did not remember that. Good reminder. (Black men had the vote for many years at that point.) nt

4. Some people are still not aware that the ERA NEVER PASSED!!!!!!!

Even though the first ladies at the time were for it, women (traitors) namely Phyllis Schlafly kept it from passing. She died last year...I am sure she had a big grin on her smug "little wife" face. I hate her enormously.

5. to this day, I regret not running her over when I had the chance.

evil, hateful traitor!

7. Women are their own worst enemies. I've never seen a group where members of that group....

actively work against the goals of the majority of the group.

8. After over 2,000 years of male dominated societies, cultures and

religions I am getting pretty sick and tired of it myself. You would think the majority of the population (women)would be too but I guess they are too indoctrinated by 2,000 years BS.
