Some ANTI-Suffrage posters.

Suffragettes fighting for Womens right to vote and women’s rights were always depicted as fat & ugly & either tarts or angry bored housewives. Remember the ANTI-Suffrage movement was comprised of men AND women. Women did this to other women.
🤬
Extraordinary lengths of manipulation. Even their “children” were drawn ugly.
Always with the “wanting to take something away from men”.
Change Suffragette to Lesbian for today’s version of this poster. 😩
Look at this one for an “if women get their way, what about poor little old me” cartoon.....Walter Wellman drew this and published it WITHOUT A HINT OF IRONY OR SELFAWARENESS!

Stunningly mad
I’m just saying....historical propaganda lends a hand to present day bigotry.
