Like saying:

'We believe men have had all the power and that's wrong - so now we are going to show how wrong that is - by doing the exact same thing in reverse!'

It's pretty basic and silly. And of course pretty hypocritical.

If you think the idea of one gender holding all the cards is so bad - why do the exact same thing then?

Empty gestures really. It makes out like someting serious is happening but really it's just another BB 'theme'

Not when it's done in remembrance of something so specific and momentous as women being able to vote though

I think its a contrived and tacky theme that insults the efforts and achievements 100 years ago. It trivialises their achievements

Listen, I can go to a Polling station and vote as can my daughter, nothing trivialises that

It's not meant to further any cause, it's just celebrating something that happened in history.

Exactly. And I've not seen anything else highlighting this anniversary, so frankly what ever Big Brother does is a step up. And from what I can see it's mostly men saying it's trivial and worthless anyway.
