Imagine that women have the right to choose all political representatives, removing from office anyone who doesn’t make wise decisions for the future. Living in a world free from violence against them, women will not allow a man to hold office if he has violated a woman. Economically independent, they have the final say in matters of war
Imagine that women have the right to choose all political representatives, removing from office anyone who doesn’t make wise decisions for the future.

Economically independent, they have the final say in matters of war and peace and the absolute right to their own bodies. This existed on this land-before Columbu
