But I'm glad that we have improved so much over the last few decades. When I moved to rural Maine, I found it interesting how attitudes from the 70s regarding women's roles were still running strong!

The UK centre for suffrage was close by in Manchester with Emmeline Pankhurst and her family. My own family were actively involved in the fight over here.<BR/><BR/>Something that is really surreal for me is that in 1973 I stood on a picket line in support of women who were striking for equal pay. I find it hard to believe that it was not that long ago even though I experienced it.Miladysahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08065128196666157541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155447609334136808.post-30497814055167274602008-03-18T12:24:00.000-04:002008-03-18T12:24:00.000-04:00It seems so bizarre that women were ever denied th...It seems so bizarre that women were ever denied the right to vote.
