Think about it: the number of votes cast doubles (which is a massive difference), yet the vote shares of political parties remain the same. There is no real change in party platforms or campaign messaging. In other words, women vote for the same candidate their husbands support. It is certainly a step forward for democracy, but not a revolution; it could be compared to an indirect electoral system.

If we are going to talk about what a revolution actually is, then a better example would be the extension of voting rights to the working class in Britain in the 1860s. A large mass of people enters politics and, through its struggle, turns the established order upside down. Political parties are forced to adjust their promises and programs. Likewise, the enfranchisement of Black Americans can also be cited as an example.

If women had only gained the right to vote today, then we could probably call it a revolution, considering that they make up the core of the SJW movement.

As someone who been into the arts for a very long time, watching art sites that are still active, and looking at art trend, from 90s to today, I notice a slow shift toward diverse representation of what is beautiful, and appealing. Previously, there were idea that really thin ladies are attractive, but now that's not as popular as women who are of normal weight. For most of 90s and 2000s, what is dominant is the representation of white women to symbolize beauty, but that's changing toward more inclusive and diverse representation as in non-white people are beautiful, and even men's bodies are more out there too. So, I can see 2030s and beyond becoming the era of diversity in arts after a massive cultural shift happens.

Personally, I find every demographics beautiful, in and out visually, and I'm an asexual heteroromantic man. But, I do wonder how far are we when it comes to appreciation of beauty in both men and women, and in ethnicity. I don't think appreciation of beauty in bodies (clothed or not) has to do with either romanticism or sexuality, and that's not the case with me.
