This is what Susan B. Anthony said, and it was in regards to the women's suffrage movement:

I have not allied and shall not ally myself to any part or any measure save the one of justice and equality for woman; but the time has come when I strike, and proclaim my contempt for the tricksters who put their political heel on the rights of women at the very moment when their help is most needed. I never, in my whole forty years’ work, so utterly repudiated any set of politicians as I do those Republicans of Kansas. When it is a mere matter of theory, a thousand miles from a practical question, they can resolve pretty words, but when the crucial moment comes they sacrifice us without conscience or honor. The hubbub with the Republicans show they have been struck in the right place. I was never surer of my position that no self-respecting woman would wish or work for the success of a party which ignores her political rights.

This quote comes from pg. 794 from the book, "The Life and Work of Susan B. Anthony," by Ida Husted Harper. It was published in 1898.

1. Strong, resolved women. It took 72 years before women got the right to vote.

I have no use for any woman who chooses not to vote.....

2. The more things change the more they stay the same.

Women reps in Congress are still treated horribly by the white, boys club and this is a microcosm of our entire country. I am so frustrated that 13 white men were chosen to craft a bill for MY health are. I could go on and on and on... Basically I see strides in equality between the sexes as one step forward and two steps back! We STILL do NOT have an Equal Rights Amend! America is so backwards compared to 2/3 of the other progressive countries. Geeze, even 3rd world countries have had elected female leaders for over 50 years. America is not ready for a female president and most people I know agree that is one of the top three reasons Hillary lost (Comey, Russia, then gender). No one wants to address this issue ever. It is the elephant in the room. My friend couldn't understand that there are women want to hold other women back and agree with men about gender inequality. I have no respect for them and do not consider them real women.
