Women's Equality Day

Woman Suffrage 
Equality. It's been one of those items of contention for various groups over the years.

Even now, the rehetoric continues on multiple planes of existence and the alleged downtrodden are sometimes whining and moaning and groaning to the actual underdogs in society.

People touting the "privilege" of another group is often suberfuge for the greedy seizure of more and more while those objects of that complaining receive less and less.

Entitlements it seems cross all sorts of boundaries these day. Those qualms of yesteryear were a simpler time and place than that reality we now know.

August 26 marks Women's Equality Day in the United States. It commemorates the adoption of the 19th Ammendment to the US Constitution of August 18, 1920 which guarantees the right to vote regardless of the sex of the voter.

It was first celebrated with significant fanfare in 1973 and is proclaimed annually by POTUS since.
