It blew my mind to hear it stated black black men got the vote like 45 years sooner than white women. I think I knew the approximate dates and all, but I'd never heard the facts pieced together like that. Ever. And I'm a political junkie.
It was due to the majority of women not wanting to vote. It was just their mindset at the time. Suffrage was a loud minority. A lot of women felt they shouldn't have a say in matters of things like war and finance when they didn't actively participate in it, hence they wanted to leave that responsibility to men. It's not as ominous as it's made out to be, it was just the culture of the time.
