It's not just women who had to fight for the right to vote, black people in America did, Irish people had to fight to get back our country so that we could have and vote for our own government etc etc. So to just single out women as the ones who should be so grateful and ashamed of themselves for not voting is a bit stupid.

Having said that I do always use my vote.

Great answer except I'm guilty of not even voting as a white male if have sussed it'll not make a difference in constituency in the past. This time I'm voting SNP hard in British Election and encouraging everyone to come out and give overwhelming support to free Scotland. Even if New Labour retain a small hold in our inner cities which helps them in hung Parliament, the message is sent - we no longer want any part of your country of England/Wales

Absolutely agree so long as the Scots no longer have their hand in the English till.
