Did the women of Athens vote? Did the women of our own country vote before a constitutional amendment passed? General suffrage is a separate matter from "democracy"--and as it happens, one of the things I was talking about APPROVINGLY when I mentioned how important other things than "democracy" *are*.
Jeeziss, I'm not ADVOCATING what happened. I give up, though. Clearly I'm not fit company here. Pity, that.
