Wait, I thought voting is compulsory in Belgium? And was it back then?

1. They fought for they voices to be heard, before that the couldn’t vote and after it was compulsory. It’s a victory that is good to celebrate

2. ? why *wouldn’t* we celebrate women getting the right to vote?

3. switzerland only did it around 1971, please go troll over there

4. Celebrating equal rights is never weird.

5. They weren’t recognised as voters before then. Voting was mandatory for all of those who already had that right, so not for Belgian women.
