Exactly, the attitude that it is kinda embodies the stereotypical attitude that men believe everything revolves around them and if it doesn't they'll see it as an attack on themselves.

I just don't see the issue, getting the vote was a major historical thing for women and society in general and should be celebrated, i don't know why some people are trying to make it about something it isn't

This. I do think some people are kind of missing the point with all of this. It's not about saying women are superior, it's celebrating something specific that happened in our history (which only needed to happen in the first place because men were seen as superior). If you want to be angry at any part of this be angry about that being our history. The women who fought to change things deserve to be remembered and celebrated, even if it is by way of a crass reality TV show
