This month marks the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment. That’s the Amendment to the U.S. Constitution that finally gave women the right to vote, aka women’s suffrage. In other words, finally every adult could vote. Hey Ellie, can we take a look at it? I just want to show for the folks. That’s my cat, Ellie, over there. I’m trying to train her to help me out with these videos. Yeah just click that button.
There we go. Thanks! "The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation."
It’s simple enough, right? But it still blows my mind that it took so freaking long. I mean, 1920. That’s really not that long ago. It’s crazy. In this video, let’s briefly look at the long and difficult struggle for women to finally get to vote, particularly here in the United States.
It all started with the Iroquois in modern-day upstate New York. Also known as the Six Nations- they referred to themselves as the Haudenosaunee. The Iroquois Confederacy formed in 1142, and when they did they didn’t say only men could vote. They let all adults vote on all major decisions. It wasn’t just voting. The Iroquois generally treated men and women equally.
After democracy made a comeback during The Enlightenment, you did see random circumstances where women were able to vote. For example, there was Lydia Taft, the first woman known to legally vote in colonial America, but it really was on behalf of her dead husband. Back then, being able to vote was almost always tied to owning property, and who owned the property? Men.

Maybe a future amendment should be one that has the Electoral College better reflect the popular vote, particularly having states have the electoral votes distributed to reflect the popular votes in each state, so not have the winner in each state get all electoral votes in that state, possibly distributing them by district
That federal congressmen and senators should have term limits.
Ending partisan gerrymandering, adding term limits in Congress, fixing how we vote in presidential primaries, and abolishing or fixing the electoral college.
SiVlog i’d rather not by district. But by actual % of vote through rank choice voting.

@@PongoXBongo You probably should?
Do you mention that Men couldn't vote until the 1850s? Before then, if your country had voting at all, the franchise was limited to land-holders or aristocracy. So within a few decades of all adult Men having to vote, Women got the vote too.
Did you even watch the video?
It's so crazy to me how such major legislation often comes down to just one vote.
One vote and one state in this case. Indeed it's crazy!

I'm Iraqi, in my country woman were allowed to vote about 40 years ago, I asked my mom about it and she shrugged it off saying it was a monarchy then a takeover and no one male or female got to vote, the right to vote was granted to everyone at the same time..though arguably we haven't really had a transparent or honest elections since, but hey at least it wasn't discrimination!

Hard to believe my grandmother who died in 2015 only had the right to vote just 5 years prior (she was born in 1925).
My Grandmas were born in 1929 and 1933. They weren't too far off, either.

A Few interesting facts:
-1906 was also the year when all men in Finland got the right to vote. Prior to that only the members of the four estate could vote.
-Finland was the first country in the world were women also got the right to run as candidates. (19/200 members of parliament were women in 1906)
-The first female minister of the world was also Finnish Miina Sillanpää SDP (The minister of Social Affairs 1926-1927)
Thanks for sharing all that!
Wow that didn't take very long from when women got the right to vote to the fiety female minester.
I always new Finland was progressive but I was not aware of these historical tidbits. Thank you for the education!!
It’s sad that there are still men AND women who think a woman can not be a president because a woman is too “Emotional”.
As a swiss person this was so funny ; when you were listing countries and years I thought "holy cow wait until he sees Switzerland" and then you made your comment about how long it took us. Wait until you learn that the last canton (state) to give women the right to vote was Appenzell InnerRhoden in 1991. There is a "funny" swiss film about this called "Die göttliche Ordnung".
Thank you for this video ! It was very interesting

Well to be fair, the men they quoted at the beginning all looked like the same person.
Woah, you're kind of right. For the record, two of them were the same person.
Glad we all mostly have the right to vote. But now we have to fight voter suppression and gerrymandering and our union would be even more perfect :)
Time for some more amendments!
Now we need true equality and make women pay the same price men do to vote which is sign up for the draft.
Chris I disagree women and men will never have physical equality which is one of the reasons why it should be men drafted for war, women volunteer. You can believe in the idea of equality but it doesn’t make sense cause not everyone is inherently the same equity is better. But there shouldn’t be a draft for women.
Luke H. My statement was meant to point out women want equality without responsibility.
Luke H. True however I don’t think all men should be drafted. If you aren’t planning on going to collage. All men must serve at least one year of service.

What’s even crazier is how long it took to allow women to vote in the province of Quebec in Canada.
It took all the way up too the 1940s to allow them to vote...
Still much sooner than Switzerland. :)
I’m confused when you said that Saudi Arabia gave women the right to vote in 2015. I thought they were an absolute monarchy where nobody voted
They have municipal elections, which men were allowed to vote in already. It's a horrible repressive absolute monarchy, don't be mistaken, women's right to vote is not a solution to everything, just a necessity to a complete solution.
Their votes mean nothing. The Middle East is run by American puppet states.
My great grandma wasn't able to vote when she became of age (21 at the time) because the UK only extended the franchise to working class and young women in 1928. Given that I was only born in 1999, that really puts it into perspective for me.
and rightfully so, no fighting in war for the country, no voice in how the country operates
Another wonderful video! Thank you Mr. Beat

I'm doing well. I hope you're doing well, too. Thanks so much for the kind words. :D
I think it's important to note that in the United States, the women's suffrage movement and abolitionism have always been intertwined, for better or worse. The women's suffrage movement initially relied on a lot of the abolitionists' support and resources. This is eventually (post-abolition of slavery, but still the same movement/people) what led to the division between the National Woman Suffrage Association and the American Woman Suffrage Association, because they disagreed over whether black men should be able to vote before white women.
@French Zoomer Excuse me?
It's amazing how most of the people obsessed with keeping America how the Founding Fathers intended wouldn't have been allowed to vote back in the era they desperately attempt to glorify.
Sure they would. Plenty of middle aged white men own their own house on a plot of land. It's just that they don't want city-dwellers, women, young adults, and minorities to vote.
That Shield Dude Yes, but they don’t realise there are more restrictions than just house on a plot of land. The land has to be of a certain size. You have to be doing certain things on that land. And you have to have lived on that land for a certain period of time. They varied but back in 1790, just owning your own house wasn’t always enough.
Woodrow Willson Don't like Woman the right to vote in 1920 until the 1921 or 1920 and 19 Amendment
Wilson arguably had selfish reasons for changing his mind, but he did change his mind, and I do think a big part of was those protests. Protests work.
There’s a cool Schoolhouse Rock song about the 19th Amendment.
Also, David Bowie has a song called Suffragette City.
Suffragette City is one of my all-time favorite songs. I hope to make a David Bowie video on my other channel someday!
William White Yeah. I wasn’t going to say anything 😷
This video reminds me of my junior year of high school. I took an American Public Policy class. My teacher showed the class a video of a guy going around a college campus asking women to sign a petition to end women's suffrage. Many women didn't know what the word suffrage meant and thought it meant suffering. So they would sign the petition and cheer. (Though there were some women who knew what the word meant and refused to sign the petition.) 😂
Oh wow, that's like John Stossel going around getting people to sign a petition banning dihydrogen monoxide.
These men would be shocked to our President has daily “womenly” outburst.
Hey Mr. Beat, it is really interesting to see how the idea of democracy had evolved over the centuries, comparing the Athenian democracy to a modern democracy is almost impossible, but the road to true democracy is still long in most countries.
I believe it's still in its infant stage.
Ohh man, Alex's hats quote made me LOL
As soon as I saw that as an option I knew I *had* to choose it!
2:57 It looks like Mr. Beat's sanity succumbed to the quarantine life
Indeed.
Wait it took the USA until 1920 to let women vote? Kate Sheppard's 1893 petition to the New Zealand Parliament is available online, I found my ancestors had signed it. I was very proud to see their names.
Good for them!
That guy had a point about hats
Well, the women can just take off their hats! How about that?
Title: Women didn't let women vote
Me: *_confusion_*
More accurately, they didn't want women voting.
Women use misogyny to police gender too (i.e. slut shaming)
Women that didn't let women vote are like men that oppose patriarchy! Even though it benefits their gender but they just are too fixated on their belief system. 🙄 😒
Damn, those arguments against the 19th amendment were hilarious. Anyway, good video Mr. Beat. By the way I have a interesting idea for a video. The most important presidential elections in American history. Again, good video Mr. Beat. Because of you, I learned more about American history.
Thanks so much, and I really love that suggestion.
You forgot to mention Australia, where the colonies of South Australia and Western Australia gave women the right to vote in 1895 and 1899, then in 1902 across the whole country after Australia became a country. There were very serious constitutional debates in the 1890s over protecting women's rights to vote in colonies where they did have that right.
Incidentally, South Australia became the first jurisdiction in the world to allow women to stand for parliament, after conservatives proposed an amendment to derail the entire bill, but it all passed anyway.
Thanks for bringing this up!
I really like these longer videos that cover a broader historical/political topic or era, just like the Mafia video you did a while back. I was thinking maybe you could do a video on Newt Gingrich and the Republican Revolution of 1994 in the US Congress? There aren't really any videos talking about it on TH-cam and I think it was a fascinating time in American politics.
2:20 Wait a minute, he’s got a point 😳
lol
Nope. If the hats piss you off so much, nobody gets hats
Mr Beat would you consider doing Torcaso v Watkins for Supreme Court Briefs. I only found out today that 8 states still have a religious qualification for public office written into their constitutions.
it’s surprising that only now it’s been a hundred years, you think we’d have been allowed to vote earlier, since a lot of activism started in the 1800’s, but i think everyone agrees when i say we shouldn’t have had to fight for years for something so basic
I couldn't agree more.
Just started watching, and I think it's very clever and classy. It's a perfect combination of irony and rubbing it in your face. I love it. *chef's kiss*
Looking back 100 years later it is amazing that they once couldn’t vote
It truly is!
What's amazing is that they got the vote without the draft.
Women can have an equal say in determining the direction of the country, but if that direction leads to a war or disaster, then the men are forced to catch the bullets and the women leave through the back door, like what's happening in Ukraine right now.
Equal say without equal responsibility.
When it comes to voting, it's not my body my vote.
But when it comes to abortion, they scream, "My body, my choice," and the men get no say at all.
Hypocrites, all of them.
Hi Mr. Beat 🙏
17:23 yes that was on the federal level but some states (aka Cantons) gave women the right to vote in 1959 (mainly western francophone states and the two Basel) then happened this vote where the Swiss (male) population accepted it by 65.7%. And the worst part is that 2 states (the two Appenzell) didn’t grant women the right to vote on state level until 1989 and 1990 (the last one being forced by the federal government). I feel sometimes ashamed by my country on this type of circumstances 😳
By the way I love your content 😊
Fun fact. Across every State, Men still dont have the right to vote like women do.
Great video, I actually cover this Amendment in my video: "What if the South Won the Civil War?" and how the South voted against 19th Amendment, with it not passing in the Confederacy until 1970 had the South been an independent. Keep up the great work Mr.Beat!
Honestly, I'm not even upset that women can't vote in Vatican city simply because citizenship isn't permanent in Vatican city and it's less of a country and more like a sovereign headquarters for the catholic church. Women not being able to vote in Vatican City is disappointing, but ultimately seems inconsequential.
Yeah, I was mostly just being silly
Proud to come from one of the first states to give women the right to vote
Kansas was one of the first, too. Wait, are you also from Kansas?
@@iammrbeat No Utah. We were the second territory to give women suffrage, but then the federal government took it away from us. We then became the third state to allow it because we enshrined it in our state constitution when we were finally admitted in 1896. Glad Kansas was an early adopter too though!
Hi, Mr. Beat this is a completely irrelevant question, but if you don’t mind me asking what is your favorite Supreme Court case as well as your favorite SC Justice and why?
Probably Texas v. Johnson, and I really like John Marshall.
Mr. Beat Also, last question when are you going to do another livestream? Your one of my favorite TH-camrs so I would just like to know.
I was reading a history of one of the Scottish Women's Hospitals in France during the Great War. The author writes a couple of paragraphs about the difference between Suffragists and Suffragettes. Succinctly the former believed that persuasion and example would achieve their goals whereas the latter believed civil disobedience was more productive.
Yeah, suffragists later embraced the term "suffragette" and ran with it.
@@iammrbeat I didn't mean to come off snarky. I might have lost what I was trying to say. These women ran their hospital with the only man permanently on staff being a French chef who had been a patient. Not only was the hospital run by women it was paid for by women all as an example that women were capable and deserved the vote. Thanks for another great video.
The tiny nation of Liechtenstein, located on the border between Austria and Switzerland, is the last European country to give women the right to vote, granting it in 1984
I didn't know they were the last European country. Thanks for sharing!
According to the National Parks Service of the United States, “The 19th Amendment gave women the right to vote, but some New Jersey women could vote as early as 1776. New Jersey’s first constitution in 1776 gave voting rights to “all inhabitants of this colony, of full age, who are worth fifty pounds … and have resided within the county … for twelve months.” In 1790 the legislature reworded the law to say “he or she,” clarifying that both men and women had voting rights. But only single women could vote because married women could not own property. Still, many unmarried women voted in New Jersey in the 1790s and the very early 1800s…In 1807, the state legislature restricted suffrage (voting rights) to tax-paying, white male citizens. This was done to give the Democratic-Republican Party an advantage in the 1808 presidential election. Women often voted for the opposing Federalist Party, so taking away women’s voting rights helped the Democratic-Republicans. This law also took voting rights away from African Americans.”
I need to stop adding videos to the "Watch later" playlist because then I somehow take more time to actually watch them. Anyway, great video! The quotes at the beginning were amazing (in no small part thanks to the delivery). Poor Sir Cecil Beck sounds like he was afraid that the women might turn out to be better politicians after all and of course, Rowland Hunt wins by having the best argument.
Being Polish my favorite quote of a XIX century prick about women comes from Tsar Nicolas I himself. In a letter from 1831 to Ivan Paskievich, his new governor of the freshly reconquered Poland, after the November Uprising, he wrote that: “I fear women! That devilish nation always acted through them!”. I know it's not directly about the voting rights.
I wonder how they would react to the women running for president today, like Harris, Gabbard, and Clinton, politics aside. Anyhow great video! As to what amendment should be the next, I’d say something relating to the electoral college; either abolishing, reforming it, or changing it to give votes proportionally to the popular vote.
I agree with that amendment (of course). :D
"Goodness gracious" ... that's putting it mildly LOL

I fully agree, we should stop with sexism
And implement a gender neutral draft for combat roles
@@angrydragonslayer As a feminist, I agree. If you must have a draft, it must be gender neutral, and people should be put in roles based on ability, not sex. Probably this will still lead to a higher proportion of men that women in combat, because men are stronger and more likely to meet certain physical requirements. But I nevertheless view gender-based drafts as sexist.

There is still some work to be done. For example, it seems like at average woman have a disadvantage at the labour market and men, for example, at custody issues.
I think that in Europe we are further in closing that kind of gaps
Trueblade your right in the custody gap. Women get custody 83% of the time and men 3%. You’re also correct in sexism still exists. Men get harsher sentences for the same crime then women. It’s ok to criticize men, even companies like Gillette are doing it, but to criticize women are to be a misogynist. California has a state law requiring company executives to hire women instead of however the most qualified candidate is. There are far more abuse shelters for women then men. In fact, society says men can’t be abused physically or mentally. There is a lot of sexism for sure
@@Chris-cy8mx we do criticise the negative effects of emphasised femininity. Mocking women who police others to conform to gender norms is the norm....

Hey, Mr. Beat! Can you please do a brief history of Guns N' Roses over on The Beat Goes On youtube channel next time?
Time for the other(admittedly wrong) side.
Most women didn't even want to vote due to the responsibilities attached to voting, like Bucket duty and the draft. Now although yes, they have the right to vote which was wrongly held away from them, it wasn't something all women wanted, hell many of the men fought harder than them for the reasons above(not only because they didn't lose anything, but they gained people who could take their place, and then women were exempted from the draft and bucket duty: firefighter draft).
Do you think woman were brainwashed? Did woman already have similar responsibilities to things like bucket duty?
5:52 That's what is used to be about.
We need to hear more of your cat mr beat ♥️
A point of correction in an otherwise excellent video.
Suffragettes and suffragists were two separate groups (although you use the terms interchangeably). Suffragists were founded in the 1830's-40's and picked up steam in the 1880's onwards. They used peaceful methods like petitions, marches, writing books etc, they believed that the best way to get women the vote was to prove that women were just as rational as men.
Suffragettes were founded in the early 1900's, as a reaction to the perceived slowness of the suffragists. The 'gettes believed that the best way to get women the vote was to simply make it too much work for the government to deny it to them. These women slashed paintings, smashed shop windows, bombed letterboxes etc.
I don't know about America but I know that in the UK the suffragettes get most of the credit despite a) being around for much less time and b) being much more unpopular. Most women at the time identified with the suffragists.
Nope, I never used the terms interchangeably. Go back and watch again!
@@iammrbeat My bad, sorry!
Mr. Beat: women can vote in every country!
The Taliban in Afghanistan: watch this
“Women can vote in every country in the world”
North Korea: are you sure about that.
Countries that are autocracies are true gender equalist
I don’t want to be that guy but working class men couldn’t vote until the 19th amendment was passed either.
Could you elaborate?
Compare colorado and Washington state please! I'm from denver and am seriously debating on moving to Washington st
Mr beat. Are you going to do a 2020 election video after the election? Like in 2016?

Is that the cat noise from fate that old pc rpg dungeon crawler
In the Uk we had not only women disenfranchised but also troops because the law stated you had to live here for 12 months before the election and be a land owning male over the age of 21. In 1918 the representation of the people act passed allowing women over 30 to vote, and abolished the land ownership and other restrictions. In 1928 women were granted the vote at 21 years old with the passing of the equal franchise act... then in 1969 representation of the people act of 1969 passed allowing votes at 18 then in 2014 Scotland allowed voting at 16 and 17 but only for Scottish Parliament elections (equivalent to state legislature) and then this year on 1st January 16 and 17 YOs can vote in wales but only for the welsh assembly giving us the system we have today!

Why are men so mean to women?
Power
Coz we understand sex to be a binary opposition system and then we ascribe sexed natures to people based on their sexed bodies. We understand maleness to be in direct opposition to femaleness and masculinity to be the opposite of femininity so we assign roles, attitudes, behaviours based on this logic which is what gender roles and division of labour is an example of. We structure societies based on this sexed logic. So it becomes naturalised(we come to think of it as 'nature'); historicised(written in to history) and normalised(we come to see it as what it is to be normal and acceptable and expected). And we all police it because our identity is bound up in other people and social interactions. If someone challenges the order, we are all invested in policing them in to conformity. So it's not as simple as men hating women - sexism is a way of ordering the universe and no one is born a sexist just as no one is born racist.
@Wise and Free not sure what you mean by "created by". Like, a first cause?
@Wise and Free am still having trouble with the "nature....made" bit lol still ambiguous
@@thatsterroristsbro7855 You essentially explained how prejudices like sexism and racism etc. came about and why they were perpetuated and this smooth brain is trying to justify sexism by saying it's "natural" (literally addressed in your comment) its meta asf lol
I thought that was my cat at first
The reason why you said YES that WOMEN SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE is because we all look forward to all EQUALL RIGHTS.
Dang straight.
you dont want equal rights cause that leads to equal responsibility. If you wanted equal rights you would be pushing for women to sign up for the draft to vote, women should receive equal time for equal crimes, push for more women in less glamours jobs like sewer worker, abolish alimony or dont get upset in the few cases women have to pay alimony such as Adele, abolish affirmative action sexist laws like California has, create more abuse shelters for men, and most of all stop complaining how hard life is for women cause its no cake walk as a man either. Do that and we can talk about equality but you won't do any of that because you don't want equal responsibility. Now proceed with your emotional tantrum and call me a misogynist because you are unable to use logic and reason to refute anything i have said.
Its really weird nowadays to think these things were normal but it was normal back then I think in the future people will think the same stuff about us what we though was normal. But anyway I like this video Mr. beat
Totally. We will certainly be looked down on by future folks.
Mr. Beat agree
excuse me if someone already asked this but... your voice, i hear seth meyers from late night, even the speech pattern... any relation?
You should've been more clear about what did voting actually meant back then. The general population could not vote for any legislative body until the late 1800s. Voting meant a small representation in a legislative body, not an election of a legislative body. It was only the US that had elections. In UK, it wasn't until 1885 that the house of commons was entirely elected by general elections. In Europe, Poland was the first to introduce democratic elections in 1815 when the lower house of their govt. was entirely elected by the general public.
It’s always interesting to have discussions on controversial issues on TH-cam. Where do you stand on women’s right to vote? For or against, and please back up your answer in the comments below.
This is controversial?
Why is women's right to vote considered controversial? What are you on?
@@leonardo.diCATio I've seen a lot of videos that frequently make feminists and just women in general look bad. I suspect (and I'm saying this as a man) there is at least some resentment towards women on the platform
"Many thought women had inferior brains, AND BACKED IT UP WITH THE CRAPPY SCIENCE OF THE TIME".
I love that phrasing, brilliant.
17:45 and all the other countries, which do not let anyone vote
When looking at the timeline of the expansion suffrage in the west, the disparity between race and sex are historically very minor in comparison to that of class, status and rank. It wasn’t until the 1828 presidential election that non-property-holding white males could vote in the vast majority of states. Not even all states. The last state to abolish property qualification was North Carolina in 1856. And it wasn’t until the Reform Act of 1867 that enfranchised part of the British urban male working class in England and Wales for the first time. Universal male suffrage was only established in France in 1848 and only in 1867 did Germany (the North German Confederation) enact suffrage for all adult males. There is a gap ranging between 60 and 100 years between the enacting of male and female suffrage, however this is in the context of millennia of rule under absolute autocracies and very limited democracies. There is an absolute disparity, however I would argue that it should be viewed in the context of history and not through the lense of modern ideology.
