Give a clear, concise and complete explanation of your answer. (Not just a simple yes or no.)
Should women be subject to laws passed by men? Should women be subject to taxes?
A good (if undemocratic) argument could be made that uneducated women as well as uneducated men should not be allowed to vote, but that argument fell apart in many countries since they were unwilling to deny voting rights to uneducated (and therefore, usually poor) males. Note that at present, women tend to be better educated than men (a political issue in America, since the Democrats favor affirmative action for women when statistics show that if anything it should favor males).
I dont understand the question.
My question is – Should men have the right to vote.
Women are much less political and much more truthfulness oriented…..usually….Kamala is an exception.
The whole question is extremelly chauvenistic. I really feel bad for your wife.Yes. Because why not?
Additionally, the power of voting is that the politicians in office will care about the voters opinions/wants/needs and that is more important for women than men. For example, if a politician wants to attract female voters he might propose an extension of maternity leave.
Do you have a reason why you think women shouldn’t vote?
Female citizens enjoy the same rights and privileges and have the same responsibilities as male citizens. Of course they should vote. Why on earth would anyone think otherwise?
women are not to be voting.
Men should be deciding as always this was the mesorah from our great rabbis.
not hasveshalome because we disrepecting women we very much are respecting to them this is just no their role to know.The Mishpat Kohen zatza”l ruled that no, they shouldn’t be voting. (I’m not sure if that’s the same as having the right to vote).
Joseph,
Do you allow your multiple wives to vote and if so, does it count against their allowed monthly excursion out of the house?
Only women should vote. Men can’t vote because of bittul Torah.
> Should men have the right to vote.
The argument could be made that men deserved their vote by fighting for it over centuries, developing philosophies and constitutions … After men earned a right to vote, they decided to share this right with the women – maybe hoping that the latter will reward them in their family life. Men, as usual, never think that they might be wrong, so they did not include a clause allowing them to have a later vote by men only to return to the status quo ante.
This is happening not just with vote but with other things too – men invented physics, electricity, steam engine, cars, wipers, built roads, and now when they are driving, women tell them they are doing it wrong.
yall’ ladies can all vote in my poll if you think trump or that ladys gunnu win so head on over to my thread on votin’ right now!!
Always-ask: the reason why women didn’t participate in any of these inventions is because they were excluded from doing so, and if you read a little history you’ll find that men weren’t nice by giving women the right to vote. Women, on an almost global scale, fought bitterly for it. That’s why feminists were stereotypically angry. Because men absolutely did not allow women to do anything until they had no choice.
It would actually make more sense to use a minimum IQ threshold for voting rights which would ensure that women have a structural majority irrespective of any explicit gender restrictions. Sadly, there are constitutional restrictions on applying such a test to candidates for federal office (since that might otherwise exclude a certain “stable genius” from running).
Alternatively, women could just change the”gender’ designation on their registration forms.
“Do you allow your multiple wives to vote and if so, does it count against their allowed monthly excursion out of the house?“
You know there’s something called absentee (mail in) voting?
chassidish-theorist> women didn’t participate in any of these inventions is because they were excluded from doing so
Most men in history were also excluded. Only relatively rich and free men participated in intellectual life. There were societies where women had access – Roman aristocratic women, for example. In last several centuries, women had access to resources in many European countries. Yes, Mrs. Curie had difficulties getting accepted in male-run university, but she could have opened her own women-only school (I think she actually was involved in teaching in such schools), same way men organized men-run universities.
Gadol> minimum IQ threshold for voting rights which would ensure that women have a structural majority irrespective of any explicit gender restrictions.
I am also for IQ or other knowledge-based testing – both for candidates and voters.
Average IQ is same for men and women, but (not fully confirmed, I think) men have more variability – there are more stupid and more very smart men.
This is a general trend in biology – male species have more variability.So, if you use an IQ cut off 70, exclude stupid people, there will be more men excluded, but if you use cut off 120 – keeping only smartest voters, then there will be more men, so, in practice, wives of smartest men will be in control.
The average IQ is 100 because the test is always weighted so that the average IQ is 100
If this is true, then average adult IQ for ujm household is 97.5?
BUT average IQ is, by definition, 100. So if men are 99 and women are 97, then there are some malochim or mazikin with a higher IQ that make it come to 100 as an average.
