I don't see how women having the right to vote has turned out to be a good thing for anyone, including women. They are way unhappier than they were decades ago and many of them rely on the state as a surrogate husband to support them

I'm not sure how much faith in "democracy" i have left at all though, having lived in the US for three decades

Women had the right to vote decades ago.

Women are clearly happier now than a hundred years ago.

100 years ago

Women are clearly happier now than a hundred years ago.

No female happiness has been in decline since at least the 70s.

I dont think having the right to vote is a direct cause of female unhappiness - but the policies/things the have voted for have helped to create a system that has led to more female unhappiness
