For years, the MRM has been told women live under an oppressive patriarchy that denies them any power or influence. What did anti-suffragettes have to say about that? We’ll continue to investigate by reading through and responding to Joe C. Miller’s report “Never a fight of women against man: What the textbooks don’t say about women’s suffrage.”…
For the last few weeks, we’ve been examining the historical conflict between women over voting rights, by reading through and responding to Joe C. Miller’s report “Never a fight of women against man: What the textbooks don’t say about women’s suffrage.”…
Last week, we learned a bit about the the Seneca Falls Convention and began reading through the declaration of sentiments written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, looking for that “about equality” vibe feminists keep telling us we should be getting from their work.…
In our timeline of the historical context around the evolution of suffrage in countries influenced that had been English colonies, whose systems were influenced by the English parliamentary system & English common law, we have reached the American Revolution, and have been discussing what voting looked like at that time.…
Over the last 2 weeks, as part of the context related to the development of suffrage in nations influenced by the English parliamentary system, we delved into the related history of gynocentrism, by discussing the difference between gynocentrism, and gynocentric culture, reading an article on the subject from Peter Wright’s reference site, gynocentrism.com.…
Last week we discussed how biologically different women were from women today in ancient times when we didn’t have the luxury of tools to do all of our hard manual labor around the home. We learned that physical evidence in the bones of men and women indicated that historically, women’s arms endured much more mechanical loading than women of today, and the average woman likely had arms stronger...
Show notes In discussing the history of male suffrage and its link to the history of male military obligation, I realized there’s an aspect of this history we’re not talking about. In today’s political debates we’re told that historically, patriarchal attitudes kept women out of military service and many other harsh realities of life; dirty jobs like coal mining, dangerous work like hunting...
Last week, we learned quite a bit about how voting rights came to exist under English common law, and how that history intrinsically connects them with civic duty and military obligation, but that only brings us to the point where 1%-3% of the population even had voting rights.…
How can we talk about women’s history in English-influenced western law without talking about voting rights? Well, sorry ladies. If we’re going to talk about voting rights, we’re going back a bit further than the suffragettes. The practice predates women’s interest in it by a few hundred years.…
It’s whammon’s history month, because apparently history didn’t all happen to the whole human race at once, and it can’t be traced as if it had. What better time to continue looking into the history of the totally organic gender revolution with its very legitimate corporate and government sponsors?…
