It wasn’t even 120 years ago that non-wealthy non-landowners could vote either.
Women’s suffrage was a close flow on from universal suffrage.
It’s historically dishonest to imply that all men had the vote prior to women when that’s not even remotely close to the truth.
Likewise, I’m sure Western/European women felt mighty valuable when generations of me, right up until Vietnam in the 70s when men were still addressing involuntary conscription. Nothing says disposable like being shipped off to war by the boatload.
