It has become impossible to forget 'votes for women,' just as it was impossible to forget the reformation of Luther.

It's the 21st century. It's untenable to suggest that women had no significance and no interest and that just because they didn't vote they had no relevance to the course of our history.
A lot of men in politics suddenly woke up to the issue of women in politics when they realised: hey, there are votes in this!
I think there has been a great deal of valuable revisionism in women's history.
Having the vote is just symbolic. There are still many issues on which women don't have any right and, in many countries, where women are given very very few rights.
