How did western suffrage start? | HBR Talk 302

How can we talk about women’s history in English-influenced western law without talking about voting rights? Well, sorry ladies. If we’re going to talk about voting rights, we’re going back a bit further than the suffragettes. The practice predates women’s interest in it by a few hundred years. We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it, but until we do, we’re going to be talking about men, darling.
