    He added, “A woman’s right to vote is not a ‘sensitive social issue’. It is established law and fact. A board game about historical events from over a century ago is unlikely to ‘impact the outcome of an election or pending legislation’.”

    Hey, now and then, I hear the suggestion that women’s suffrage should be removed. Sometimes even from women that have totally bought into the patriarchy. Still, as far as I know, that opinion remains far from mainstream (thank goodness).

    Honestly, there’s still a lot of leftover shit from the Civil War that’s still affecting politics. And that’s almost 70 years older than the 19th Amendment.

    So while I agree that Women’s Suffrage is hardly sensitive, age seems to have little to do with it.
