    This is also why “no uterus no opinion” is bullshit. In Argentina , the law legalising abortion had a bigger %women voters against it than men.

    I learned about this several years ago when I wandered in to the Berkeley Historical Society when they were highlighting the women’s sufferage movement. They had their archival boxes of documents out to peruse directly, and I was shocked by all the flyers for anti-sufferage meetings and parties organized by the society women of Berkeley.

    As I learned later, it wasn’t much before 1920 that sufferage reached majority support among women.
