Women Sticking It To Susan B. Anthony

November 9, 2016 | celebrity | Lex Jurgen | 0 Comments

ABC News and various other national media outlets have been live covering lines of almost entirely women at the grave site of Susan B. Anthony in Rochester, New York, honoring the 19th century suffragette and super fun lesbian by covering her tombstone in I Voted stickers. People fucking love those stickers, so this is no small concession. Though if you asked the old lady buried beneath, she’d probably settle for another honorary coin.

The news is casually omitting the fact that this Susan B. Anthony gravesite tradition dates back many years now as a promotional idea of the mayor’s office. Rochester isn’t booming with tourists. The news is covering the lines of women and the vote for Hillary Clinton as if women haven’t had the right to vote for the past twenty-five Presidential elections. Or been the majority of the population.

Women voted in greater numbers for Obama than they will be for Hillary Clinton today. Proving that in their most honest moments absolutely nobody wants to fuck Hillary Clinton. Also that black voters in 2008 practically understood the pure symbolism of this entire Presidential process and measured their public dramatics accordingly. Women in white suits breaking the shackles of donuts and coffee at the local polling place seems a bit overwrought. As does celebrating the election of a gross woman by desecrating the grave of a decent woman. Chicks.
