Does it make me a bastard if I point out that Prohibition was passed before nation-wide women's suffrage? 18th and 19th amendments, respectively.

Which is why I specifically stated women's suffrage started much earlier in Wyoming and by the time the 19th was passed it was already existant in a lot of states, anyway.

I also used the year 1807 for a specific reason, fyi.

That's what I figured, but I just wanted to be fair and balanced.

Besides, I wasn't trying to make any sort of point... I was just throwing a few random fun-facts out there!

I love funny observations that get my girlfriend mad at me. Those are usually the best!

Ok, true story.

Today while history class was wrapping up, I smiled at the teacher and asked her, "so are you ready for a loaded question?"

She laughed and said, "Oh no.... what?"

I said, "Did the rise of Progressivism have anything to do with the advent of women's suffrage movement?"

She just looked at me and said, "Well yes, a lot. We'll be discussing that."

So there.

Women do vote for lefties.

Once I was engaged to a solid conservative-Republican leaning woman, and decided I couldn't marry a woman who could vote Republican so easily in good conscience. Liberation would have been fine.

[edit]Just noticed the Freudian... meant "Libertarian"
