  Well, obviously.....and yes and no......but I couldn't let Bill get away with slipping that one through....

  Women's suffrage would not 'still' be a cause celeb....there would be LESS than ZPG....and maybe other social ramifications I don'e even want to think about.....

  Elle,
I think the point is, without the men voting to put the Amendment to the
states, and the men in the states voting to approve it (two thirds, I
think), women's suffrage would still be a cause celeb in this country.
Along the same lines, if the Union Army, initially populated with whites,
and sent to war by whites, using treasure accumulated and controlled by
whites, hadn't been, slavery would have died much more slowly in this
country.

Gee, thanks for the primer.

So now you're hiding behind the amendment, rather than
accepting the responsibility for the patronizing "we
LET them vote."

If I remember history (yeah..his..story), there wasn't
a lot of letting but a lot of weeping & wailing &
gnashing of teeth...(and that was the men,...)

(Probably a lot of kvetching, too...;^)
