这10张老式海报揭示了人们对赋予妇女投票权的恐惧

Times are a-changing and nowadays it is easy to take our ability to vote for granted. However, it's really not that long ago since our grandmothers and great-grandmothers had to go through some serious abuse to win that right. Just a century ago, suffrage was a highly divisive and controversial issue in Western society.

时代在变化，现在很容易认为我们投票的能力是理所当然的。然而，就在不久以前，我们的祖母和曾祖母还得经历一些严重的虐待才能获得这种权利。一个世纪以前，选举权在西方社会是一个高度分裂和有争议的问题。

It's always scary to challenge the status quo and these postcards from the early 20th century are a perfect illustration of that. In them, you can see the frustration of men and women alike, who were afraid of change and thought that granting women the right to vote will somehow ruin the world and the progress that was made. Sadly, these mocking images still look vaguely familiar even in today's context where feminists (sometimes even referred to as feminazis) are depicted as irrational, neurotic and even abusive. Scroll down below to see the full list of illustrations and don't forget to vote for the ones you like (erm, hate?) the most.

挑战现状总是令人害怕的，这些20世纪早期的明信片就是一个很好的例子。在他们身上，你可以看到男人和女人一样的沮丧，他们害怕改变，认为赋予妇女投票权将在某种程度上破坏世界和取得的进步。可悲的是，即使在今天这样一个女权主义者(有时甚至被称为女权主义者)被描述为不理性、神经质甚至虐待的环境中，这些嘲讽的形象看起来仍然模糊而熟悉。向下滚动查看完整的插图列表，不要忘记给你最喜欢的(呃，最讨厌的?)投票。
