Hello to you, I just wanted to ask why you think it's a good idea to revoke a womans right to vote?
I am not arguing against you, I just want to know your reasoning.
Kind regards
Jay
Hi there, and thank you for your ask :)Β
I understand the opinion that women should not vote is controversial in the modern age. I myself don't feel like I should be allowed to vote, though I wouldn't presume to make that a rule for all women.. that's for Men to decide, after all. But, these are three reasons why I think myself and other women should not be allowed vote.Β
β’ as a woman, I am emotionally driven. This has caused me trouble in the past, where I make a choice based on my emotions rather than clear logic and research. When I was 18 I got to vote for the first time, and I remember actively refusing to learn about a candidates policies just because I had heard him say something I disagreed with. I know I'm not the only woman who is lead by their emotions.
β’ I believe that when the Bible states women should not teach and should be silent (1 Timothy 2:12) this can also be extended to voting, as when we vote we're essentially pushing our opinion onto others. A woman should keep her opinion on greater things to herself and her Husband as to not appear like she feels she knows best (sin of pride, self-conceit).Β
β’ in order to vote in an informed way, women would need to pay close attention to the news, politics, etc.. and these things are stressful and harmful to a woman's psyche. Of course women have the capacity to understand what they see and hear in regards to news, politics, policies, but I've never met a woman (myself included) who didn't feel emotionally and mentally drained after consuming that information. Personally, when I avoid the news and political things I can physically feel the difference in my anxiety and stress.
