You show a propensity for making grand statments out of small examples Hawk. Only because you have NO CONCEPT of the magnitude contained in those "statements".. Prior to WWII, few women were in the workplace. But with 12 million men under arms, millions of women entered the job market in order to take their place.. "Rosie the Riveteer" was a MAJOR paradigm in US social history and the advancement of opportunities for women... As for Susan B. Anthony, I guess you must have gotten a GED rather than even attend public school.. Because she and several other women spend more than 1/2 a century fighting for women's suffrage.. Btw, I found it interesting that New Zealand was the first nation to grant women's suffrage (1900): rochester.edu Now maybe you consider them to be "small examples", but their impact upon not only the US, but the entire WORLD, is impossible for anyone but you to ignore.
