Okay, but The Masculine Woman is stylin’ as fuck and the one with the ladies playing cards and smoking backfires completely as soon as you realize it’s pretty much just a straight role-reversal and the ‘indignity’ of the thing is that he’s not the one smoking and playing cards with the boys.

Also, did anyone else pick up on the blatant contradiction between accusing feminists of being ugly man-haters (“some plain things”) and saying they use their feminine wiles to coerce men into agreeing with them (“the easiest way”)?

Notice that the men against it were mostly scared of being treated the way they treated women

Also “a woman’s place is in her home”  is straight up in @agoodcartoon territory because the person upset about a woman’s place is a whiny little boy content to simply complain about everything while the suffragette girl is ready to go to the streets to fight for her rights.
