@Wormwood @LordMordred @MaleGoddess The phrase "all men are created equal" in the Declaration of Independence is a response to the divine right of kings (because it was written to a king), and the founding fathers did not believe in equality. They were slave owners who never intended to give women the right to vote and restricted the vote to landed gentry (of which 75% of American males qualified as land was cheap), but prior to the income tax, created a tax-payer voting system.
