Women's suffrage over time, by John R. Lott, Jr.

...Even after accounting for a range of other factors — such as industrialization, urbanization, education and income — the impact of granting of women's suffrage on per-capita state government expenditures and revenue was startling. Per capita state government spending after accounting for inflation had been flat or falling during the 10 years before women began voting. But state governments started expanding the first year after women voted and continued growing until within 11 years real per capita spending had more than doubled. The increase in government spending and revenue started immediately after women started voting. ...

The "either/or" premise is completely wrong. The fault lies with BOTH. It goes all the way back to Adam and Eve.

fabian?


Yes, women's emotions get them in trouble. And the men soon follow.

Well, after the collapse when the women not protected by brutish men ”the non-screamers and non-fainters” are all raped and murdered—before Armageddon notions such as yours should be recorded.

Well, if men wouldjust be stronger and have real love, the majority of women will fall in line wit that. That is my main point.
Yes, there is blame on both sides, but the man is the most natural leader and is the one who the blame really falls on. Sort of like Adam, who was directly spoken to by God and then going along with Eve’s weakness. Who did God go to first to speak to about that?

The enigma of homo sapiens has always been the most important of the sexes has the least power...

...except where it really matters to the survival of the species.

ANN COULTER reasons it this way: “If we took away women’s right to vote, we’d never have to worry about another Democrat president. It’s kind of a pipe dream, it’s a personal fantasy of mine, but I don’t think it’s going to happen. And it is a good way of making the point that women are voting so stupidly, at least single women.”

Female dominance as such is completely dependent upon men agreeing to allow it, for one, and chemically dependent upon birth control for another.

Take those away, the tacit agreement of men to permit it as well as contaception, and there will be no dominance. It’s largely an illusion of our own making.

If there is anything approaching a societal collapse, whether due to economic factors, war or natural disaster, watch how quickly it comes undone.

Who did God go to first to speak to about that?

Completely irrelevant. God punished all involved.

Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”

He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.”

And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from? ”

The man said, “The woman you put here with me —she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”

Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”

The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”

So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, “Cursed are you above all livestock and all wild animals! You will crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the days of your life. And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring[a] and hers; he will crush[b] your head, and you will strike his heel.”

To the woman he said, “I will make your pains in childbearing very severe; with painful labor you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.

To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’ “Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat food from it all the days of your life. It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return.” ... Genesis 3:8-19

When one looks over the last forty years, the devastation wrought by mothers leaving their homes/children/marriages is clear.

I have always been impressed with the number of women involved in the secure borders movement.

Their determination and grit that provides the constant burr under the politician’s saddle that slows and sometimes deters the political worms tendency to willingly trade our Nation’s sovereignty away is a constant source of amazement to me.

I’m thankful for their efforts and say God bless them all.

but we have to go to jail with all the single black fathers to do so. Our society has failed and not worth butt bugery for. Wife over knee getting whipped = jail. Sorry, no marriage here. .

My Granny always said “The hand the rocks the cradle rules the world”.

She was correct.

It is not women who are the downfall but the @*^# Libs!

Problem is the lib women have drank the poison cool-aid and that is part of what is destroying America. Part of drinking that cool-aid means that they have forgotten how to “rock the cradle”.

“Yes, many men are raised with parents who themselves have problems, so they grow up inadequate leaders very often.”

Like wow man that’s pretty heavy stuff.

This is a wtf moment here. So.... many women weren’t raised with parents who themselves have problems, so they didn’t grow up inadequate? omg?? I guess we’re never supposed to question anything, just accept it?? Yeah right!!!

Glad you qualified that as liberals. Women as voters, are more damaging than women as bosses I think.

Best bosses I’ve had, have been women.

The late great America was when moms actually stayed home and raised the family...

Ever since the late 1960s, it’s been downhill for the U.S. in many aspects.

The most nasty, heated political arguments I have in 2012 are all with men.
