you're asking the wrong question. women are not less than men (i.e. in your mind thereby not deserving of the vote). it more that they have been sold a version of themselves that is to create division, see
for a more thoughtful theory and also, whom i agree with. toxic femininity is definitely what we've transitioned to. its awful how the mean girl personality can take over - women are the most mean to other women. the pendulum will come back on them tho
>a baby does not raise one's status
as far as a baby is concerned, women have been told that having a baby not only doesn't raise ones status, but that it actually lowers it. try having four kids in your 20's and tell me you won't be judged in this society
