(157 posts)23. I would like to add onto your comment...
Thanks to every woman for standing up for yourselves, and for standing up for those who can't. Thank you for holding your ground to the important things that matter to every woman. Thanks to all the woman who have to fight harder to prove they can do the same job, and some are better, in this world. Thanks for standing your ground on the Right to Vote, equality (still a ways off from this one), and thanks for being strong for future generations. Don't get me wrong, all women are not always right...just like all men are not always right, but women have had to fight for EVERYTHING just to have the same things as men. So for this, I thank every woman for standing up for equality.

I can't imagine why ANY man here on DU would not support women's rights. This isn't Freeperville!
