Women's Equality Day

84 years ago women got the right to vote. Not much to say, except it took 'em long enough. Ampersand has a great link round-up.

Now don't disappoint the women who marched in the streets so you could pull the lever!

Some of the pictures from this link are great. Check them out.

Luckily, they didn't turn a shameful visage to the camera.

Now this was street theater. Republican convention protesters, take note.

Can't say the suffragists didn't have a sense of drama.

This is the sort of thing we need to be seeing this Election Day, ladies!

Yep, this is exactly how it turned out. *evil laugh*

This is how most people live now. *evil laugh*

Looks like the catfight was how they portrayed the feminist debate even then. At least it was a sexy catfight.

Damn straight. This is how the Shrub should feel. Get to work, ladies!

Man-hating meant wanting to vote at the time.

Eighty something years and courting female votes is still portrayed as dating.

Edited to add: I fixed the "86" and turned it to "84". It's not been 86 years and only a few people anymore want to 86 our right to vote.
