Unnatural! Harms the womb! Also, same as “mixed race” marriages, same as same-sex marriages–a religious argument that it just ain’t right and god will be very upset.
All of the above. I will mention two arguments that do not display utter ignorance. One was women would want prohibition and it would be a disaster. They did and it was, but it happened before women had vote. The other was told me by my late Swiss friend. I spent the academic year 1970-71 in the town of Fribourg. It was during that year that the referendum to allow women to vote in federal elections. They were already allowed in several cantons, including Fribourg and my friend would vote yes. (I still recall many banners saying “Oui de bon coeur” all over.) But my friend pointed out that there had been an older custom of all the men retiring to the local pub every evening and having heated discussions of politics and were thus much better informed than their wives. But that custom was already dying by 1970. And I don’t see how it could have applied to more than a minority of men anyway.
You can ask the question why women were generally not permitted to study science or math, of to be composers or novelists in a previous century? Why did George Sand have to pretend to be a man? It was always because women were assumed to be intellectually inferior. Even in 1940 a wealthy uncle of mine refused to allow his daughters to go to college because it would have been utter waste of money.
As far as I remember women and men got the right to vote, with only age being a factor, not property qualifications at the same time; in 1928.
Much as I detest Coulter, I think her point is the fact that women as a group usually vote heavily Democratic. Without woman voters, the Democrats are in serious trouble.
Do they?
More than half of the white women who voted in the presidential election cast their ballot for Donald J. Trump, according to exit poll data collected by The New York Times. SOURCE
A majority of white women voted for Donald Trump: It’s the statistic that launched a thousand narratives. “You know, I got 52% with women,” President Donald Trump said at a press conference in late September, falsely conflating the figure for white women with the figure for women overall, whom he did not win. “Everybody said this couldn’t happen—52%.” SOURCE
Of course, not all women are white women but when looking at voting blocks do they consider minority women as minorities or women when they say such things? Minorities are not likely to vote for Trump regardless of gender I would think so I am guessing they mean white women.
They mean women of all races.
One of Hillary’s problems was that women didn’t vote for her in as high a percentage as usual. Trump says as much in the quote above.
