sexist garbage in political cartoons: then and now
in the early 20th century, men would have been delighted to give women the vote if only they werent such screeching harpies all the time
thankfully 100 years later we live in an enlightened time when women are listened to and respected
100 years ago guys were like, what the heck are they protesting for? why are they so violent and unreasonable? i don’t even get it? all i hear is a high pitched whining noise???
don’t they know what’s good for them???
thankfully men listen to womens demands and ideas today and engage them on their own merits
those early 20th century cavemen were like, those suffragettes act like they’re entitled to equal rights! its like they want to be men! and whaddyathink that makes men?!
its a good thing here in 2019 we’ve finally reached equality of the sexes
100 years ago,
women were commonly infantilized
as a way to dismiss their arguments without having to engage them.
but with women in elected positions being the norm nowadays, their policy proposals are carefully considered and they’re treated like adults
other common tactic to completely shut down an uppity suffragette was to dismiss her as being too old, ugly or airheaded to matter
thank god we left those attitudes back in the olden days where they belong!
in the previous century, the ideal woman upheld the status quo and it was considered virtuous, dammit
so lets give ourselvse a nice pat on the back for leaving those attitudes behind
