You girls had it good once, you were your own boss, you looked after your house your kids, you could go for a coffee break with friends or do some shopping anytime you felt like it well almost.

You had the good life, once just being carefree women doing women’s things spending men’s money, men didn’t really mind, they never do.



So how far would you like to go back?

When women got paid less for doing the same job?
When women had to resign from their jobs when they got married?
When women couldn't get a Bank loan without a male guarantor?

or perhaps you'd like to go right back to when women weren't allowed to vote
When


.. part of the price paid for being kept for life without working hard .....

Most men didn't have the vote here until 1897 or so - at the first opportunity to vote on the issue - the vast majority of those men voted for female suffrage...

In contrast, the strident and violent activities of the suffragettes in Britain cause female suffrage to be delayed until 1920...

Thank you for coming...



how do you know that grap???>...the women were not listened too   they chained themselves to railing to get attention      and thats what women have had do through out  the centuries  .. women writers and painters worked under  a male name   for that very reason,... no one would listen to them with a female name... Roll Eyes Roll Eyes..

you have to remember this has been years and years.....being treated like second class citizens  will never be right grap....no matter which sex is kept in their place....

everything and I mean everything [in 2019] should be equal....genda should not come into account....in 99.9% OF CASES.......as we all know there are always exceptions..  and I accept that!


I've linked it before, codsy - several times - British Parliament rejected the idea of female suffrage because the actions of the suffragettes were too violent and proved that women were simply not responsible enough to have a vote...

Try this one:-

https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2018/feb/02/suffragettes-london-holloway-pris...

"Around 300 suffragettes were jailed at Holloway for arson, window-smashing and other acts of sabotage,"


"Many government offices, including the War Office and 10 Downing Street, as well as the National Gallery, St Paul’s and the Bank of England, were the targets of window smashing and bombs by suffragettes who gathered in West End tearooms and restaurants, like the Criterion on Piccadilly, to organise."

... don't filter your beer through dog turds.... read it and interpret the real activity going on... they burned and smashed .... would you consider that 'responsible' if it were your home?



like I said grap    TO GET ATTENTION>...

do you think if they had sung songs and banged the big drum like the Salvos  they would have been heard in WESTMINSTER?....

they shouldnt have had to beg or smash windows   females are not the VIOLENT ones.....

but if its the only way....

I would do the same myself  if it was happening to day..

women had no income at all   thats why they married anyone   because that was all they could do.... 

no work or pay for them... it was a terrible time for women   UNTIL THE WAR....and then like the sleeping giant women woke up and realised the country couldnt work WITHOUT THEM....

dont you think its dreadful  300 women ended up in jail because all they wanted was the vote?


They WERE heard.. and Westminster refused women the vote until 1920 because of their antics... again - I ask you - would YOU think it was right if it were your home etc, or if a group of aggrieved people were going around setting bombs and destroying private property, assaulting ministers of state, and setting fire to homes and government buildings?

Jeez, cods - you'd be the first to condemn that kind of thing.. but since it's the Holy Suffragettes/Feminists it's now all right?

The proof of the pudding is in the eating - their behaviour set back the rights of women in Britain for over twenty years compared to 'the colonies' which , without that kind of terrorist behaviour to deal with and judge by, were much quicker off the mark.

"1912 was a turning point for the suffragettes, as they turned to using more militant tactics and began a window-smashing campaign. Some members of the WSPU, including Emmeline Pethick-Lawrence and her husband Frederick, disagreed with this strategy but Christabel Pankhurst ignored their objections. In response to this, the Government ordered the arrest of the WSPU leaders and, although Christabel Pankhurst escaped to France, the Pethick-Lawrences were arrested, tried and sentenced to nine months' imprisonment. On their release, the Pethick-Lawrences began to speak out publicly against the window-smashing campaign, arguing that it would lose support for the cause, and eventually they were expelled from the WSPU. Having lost control of Votes for Women the WSPU began to publish their own newspaper under the title The Suffragette.

The campaign was then escalated, with the suffragettes chaining themselves to railings, setting fire to post box contents, smashing windows and eventually detonating bombs. Some radical techniques used by the suffragettes were learned from Russian exiles from tsarism who had escaped to England. In 1914, at least seven churches were bombed or set on fire across the United Kingdom, including Westminster Abbey, where an explosion aimed at destroying the 700-year-old Coronation Chair, only caused minor damage. Places that wealthy people, typically men, frequented were also burnt and destroyed whilst left unattended so that there was little risk to life, including cricket pavilions, horse-racing pavilions, churches, castles and the second homes of the wealthy. The also burnt the slogan "Votes for Women" into the grass of golf couses.[34] Pinfold Manor in Surrey, which was being built for the Chancellor of the Exchequer, David Lloyd George, was targeted with two bombs on 19 February 1913, only one of which exploded, causing significant damage; in her memoirs, Sylvia Pankhurst said that Emily Davison had carried out the attack. There were 250 arson or destruction attacks in a six-month period in 1913  and in April the newspapers reported "What might hve been the most serious outrage yet perpetrated by the Suffragettes":

    Policemen discovered inside the railings of the Bank of England a bomb
timed to explode at midnight. It contained 3oz of powerful explosive, some metal, and a number of hairpins - the last named constituent, no doubt to make known the source of the intended sensation. The bomb was similar to that used in the attempt to blow up Oxted Railway Station. It contained a watch with attachment for explosion, but was clumsily fitted. If it had exploded when the streets were crowded a number of people would probably have been injured.[35]

There are reports in the Parliamentary Papers which include lists of the 'incendiary devices', explosions, artwork destruction (including an axe attack upon a painting of The Duke of Wellington in the National Gallery), arson attacks, window-breaking, postbox burning and telegraph cable cutting, that took place during the most militant years, from 1910 to 1914.[36] Both suffragettes and police spoke of a "Reign of Terror"; newspaper headlines referred to "Suffragette Terrorism".

One suffragette, Emily Davison, died under the King's horse, Anmer, at The Derby on 4 June 1913. It is debated whether she was trying to pull down the horse, attach a suffragette scarf or banner to it, or commit suicide to become a martyr to the cause. However, recent analysis of the film of the event suggests that she was merely trying to attach a scarf to the horse, and the suicide theory seems unlikely as she was carrying a return train ticket from Epsom and had holiday plans with her sister in the near future."

There was also an attack on Winston Churchill in a public street...

Now - if the Mosque Sympathizers League carried out those same actions........ what would your, and official and public reaction, be? 

What if the Bent-one Tarrant Club did those same things, cods?

What about Greg's 'white supremacists'.. or the Warriors of the Aboriginal Resistance?

Still OK?

Why, in many women's minds and those of  many 'men', are these same actions by a group of women somehow sacred rights and to be admired?  If they attacked your son and burnt your house.....

Come on.... fair answer...

The police records and the records of Parliament say they did it, cods... would you suggest a government would bother to lie to that extent just to keep women from getting the vote?

Nobody is 'driven' to take extreme actions - they can choose to abide by laws or not... and gentle persuasion would have worked far better...

I have had my Rights for as long as every women alive born at the same time, cods.... it was not a Right to go to work, or whatever... and I, for one, never prevented anyone from receiving equal pay etc... in fact, like the Koons not having the vote etc, I was shocked to learn that was the case with women's pay.

As for 1920 - THAT WAS BRITAIN AND BECAUSE OF THE SUFFRAGETTE EXTREMES!!  Got it?  Australian men voted to have universal suffrage at Federation... why do you deliberately confuse Britain and Australia in this regard, and deny facts?

On the other hand - due to being born sooner - my grandmother had the vote before my grandfather... to vote is a Right - all the other things you talk about are not 'rights'...

What 'rights' did I have that women didn't have?  I was in the armed forces before I got to vote..... the money was better and they gave you food and shoes... is that a 'right'?

Sorry - but you are ranting now... and where did I say anything about 'poor men' - I offer you facts - and it is not I who am working on a men v women thing - it is you working on a women v men thing...

The fact is that the suffragettes caused their own problems and the  delay in British women getting full voting rights... without the suffragettes, that would have occurred sooner, as it did in 'the colonies'... and you can't tell me that in Australia - with a male/female ration at Universal Suffrage time of 70/30 - men were pussy-whipped into giving women the vote when asked to vote on the issue... the reality is that good men and true always supported and promoted the cause of 'women's rights' and equality - now these same ungrateful and selfish 'women' have made of those same men, such as myself who never held them back in any way, the 'enemy'... and of the likes of Shorten their 'friend' because he sucks up to them.......

We men simply refuse to be created an 'enemy' by being here and working for our living etc, as we have done all our lives... sorry 'bout that... we get to live, too, girlies... love it or leave it...


Men's anthem again.. many a true word here for men:-

While we're on the subject - what 'rights' do you imagine a man in 1890 with little property, and in a time of unreliable work, had?  the right to travel and leave home and family in search of a short term job breaking his back shearing or digging fence post hole with a shovel?

Unless they had a certain level of property they could not vote, cods... so what were all these mysterious 'rights' that men had pre-Federation and women didn't? 

The 'right' to be 'moved on from a town as a layabout and  from outside without a job?  The right to hump a swag on the tracks and rough roads looking for work in the hot sun and cold winter?  The right to be considered daily as a serf and a second class citizen with no vote or real rights?  The right to work on piece rates and be paid less and less as you aged and could not work as hard, and then die often twenty years before your wife?

And forget about Britain and its stupid suffragettes - this is (or was) Australia!!  Get your history right....

Obviously Cods everything Graps has tried to explain to you has gone straight through to the keeper.

He wasn't trying to make a case for how hard done by men were ...... he was trying to point out that woman didn't have it as bad as you claim or any worse than men of the time.

As for British Men and women:-

"Stephen Tempest

Working class householders in the cities received the vote in 1867. Those in the countryside did so in 1884. Finally, non-householders — people living with their parents, or in the homes of their employers (such as servants), or in barracks (soldiers, etc), or who were homeless — got the vote in 1918."

It wasn't just women who were left out...  Roll Eyes  Roll Eyes  Roll Eyes  Women got it in 1918 - not 1920.  Men voted it in for them..... funny that.

Now Australia:-

"Upon first white settlement in New South Wales in 1788, the appointed Governors had autocratic powers within the colony, but agitation for representative government began soon after the settlement.[1] A legislative body, the New South Wales Legislative Council, was created in 1825, which was an appointed body whose function was to advise the Governor. On 24 August 1824, 5 members were appointed to the Council, which increased to 7 members in 1825, and between 10 and 15 in 1829. Also in 1829, British sovereignty was extended to cover the whole of Australia, and everyone born in Australia, including Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders, became British subjects by birth.

The first parliamentary elections in Australia took place in 1843 for the New South Wales Legislative Council under the New South Wales Constitution Act 1842 (UK).[2] The Council had 36 members, of which 12 were appointed by the Governor and the remainder were elected. The right to vote was limited to men with a freehold valued at £200 or a householder paying rent of £20 per year, both very large sums at the time.

In the 1850s, limited self-government was granted to South Australia (1856), Victoria (1857), New South Wales (1858) and Tasmania (1896): all adult (21 years) male British subjects became entitled to vote. This included indigenous people but they were not encouraged to enroll. Queensland gained self-government in 1859 and Western Australia in 1890, but these colonies denied indigenous people the vote. An innovative secret ballot was introduced in Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia.[3]

In 1856, under a new Constitution, the New South Wales Parliament became bicameral with a fully elected Legislative Assembly and a fully appointed Legislative Council with a Government taking over most of the legislative powers of the Governor. On 22 May 1856, the newly constituted New South Wales Parliament opened and sat for the first time. The right to vote for Legislative Assembly was extended to all adult males in 1858.[4]

In 1901, the six Australian colonies united to form the federal Commonwealth of Australia. The first election for the Commonwealth Parliament in 1901 was based on the electoral laws at that time of the six colonies, so that those who had the right to vote and to stand for Parliament at state level had the same rights for the 1901 Australian federal election. Only in South Australia (since 1895) and Western Australia (since 1899) did women have a vote. Tasmania retained a small property qualification for voting, but in the other states all male British subjects over 21 could vote. Only in South Australia (which included the Northern Territory) and Tasmania were indigenous Australians even theoretically entitled to vote. A few may have done so in South Australia. Western Australia and Queensland specifically barred indigenous people from voting.

In 1902, the Commonwealth Parliament passed the Commonwealth Franchise Act 1902, which established a uniform franchise law for the federal Parliament. The Act declared that all British subjects over the age of 21 years who had been living in Australia for at least 6 months were entitled to a vote, whether male or female, and whether married or single."

Nah, then - what about that Q & A episode last night..... oh... silly me ... I thought that, in the interests of balance, they'd have an all men panel of Mens Rights Activists etc, who would be 'mansplaining' the realities of the feminist tripe put forward last week and offering alternative interpretations etc... ... silly me.. can't have balance..... not in the media..

The suffragettes dod a dirty deal with the grubberment of the time to secure they "freedom"

They handed out white feathers to men who they thought should be throwing their lives at war and were not.

I noticed that none of these campaigning women volunteered to go and fight in war, but were quite willing to hound men off to war to die.

Suffragettes were dispicable and were as bad an example of true womanhood as these rampant feminists we have today.

Lesbians, LGBTIQselfish morons who simply want, want, want with no concept of what they want.

Women managers and even worse women police think they have to be super tough to succeed.

But when they try they just look foolish.

I remember a female cop trying to take down a sizable bikie at a roadside stop, when he laughed at her.
She tried decking him with at least three punches before he shouted to one of the bloke cops and asked him to get his pet off him.

It was hilarious, but he was charged with assaulting a police officer.
He didn't even touch her, but she hurt her hand hitting him.

Women.
They have a place, but its not in men's professions.
