Should I not vote if my family and people around me say that girls and women shouldn’t vote?

[Anonymous]

My mom and I know some other people think women shouldn’t vote and I’m turning 18 in 1 month. So to appease my mom, should I not vote if I do have the right to vote at 18?

If someone says you shouldn't vote its an even bigger reason to vote. Inform yourself about the political landscape and vote for yourself.
People only tell others to note vote, because they are scared of their political views and choices. Not voting is literally giving away your freedom.

Always educate yourself on politics before you do vote. And search more than the mainstream media, and what your friends and family say.

When someone tells you not to vote, typically it means either, you dont know enough about politics to make an informed decision, OR they are scared of their side losing. In that case, seek information, and vote.

if YOU want to vote YOU should do it. no one else really should have a say in the matter

Forget what others tell you. Do YOU think your voice shouldn’t be heard? Why or why not?

Fuck your mother and her anti-feminist view. Her mother and her mother's mother fought for those rights.

You go vote. Hide it if you want, but she has no legal right to stop you. In fact, depending on where you live, it's illegal.

I hope this is a troll because if not this is very sad

Not listen to other people, just vote!!

You shouldn't vote because it doesn't really matter man or woman, politicians tell you what you want to hear. Plus you're already letting others make the decision for you so this means you should definitely not vote.

Um, do they explain WHY they think women shouldn't vote?

[_no_one_]

Then you should ask them who they are voting for and say "Damn that sucks" and proceed to vote for their opposition

The hell with them. Vote. That's your right. We already have enough people that don't vote.

If you have the right to vote, then you have a duty to vote. Vote your beliefs not those of others
